I've been offered this PK ripper to exchange, yes (don't laugh) a mk I custom burner - pretty near show condition.

But I don't know much about them at all... I've been told it's a '90 ish ripper expert, USA made.
Do I bite his arm off or hold on to my burner which means quite a lot to me...
What's it's worth do you know as is ? There is a minor ding in the top tube which I've seen.
Please help... thanks in advance.

or hold on to my burner which means quite a lot to me...
If it means a lot to you why would you let it go?
-
Well, just the effort I've put into it. Nothing sentimental.
That comment was more amaimed at those here who don't really rate the burner that highly.
I've been riding a decent burner - aero pro, and going back to a mk ! burner didn't feel too nice. :LolLolLolLol:
So I'm thinkin another decent rider in the line up might be good. ;)
-
Mate if it was me, that thing would be mine already. I'd do it.
-
if its to ride get the ripper, but the choice is yours
-
it looks 90's to me could be pro or xl get the tape out .
think the stickers have been changed ? i got one in
94 get a invert stem to keep the front end down in
the air . (best bike i ever had so do it).

Ripper :daumenhoch:
-
The only problem you may have is that Ripper will make the Aero Burner feel like a dog to ride :LolLolLolLol:
-
Get it swapped quick before he changes his mind.

I hated my PK back in the 80's. I never liked the way it rode. Thats why I kept the Supergoose. And the goose didn't snap at the sight of a skatepark.
-
This what I'd be swapping.

Thanks for your replies.
Deal or no deal ? :LolLolLolLol:
-
DEAL ;)
-
The 90s ripper is nothing like the 80s ripper its much stronger .
don't forget this is a race bike and not for the park.
-
keep the burner :daumenhoch:
-
Yep, keep the Burner. Failing that, you could always do what you feel is best. ;)
-
Keep the Burner - then again I'm biased on this one ;)
-
Thanks for the replies chaps, I've decided to keep hold of the burner. I know it's only a burner but it's not like I can do anything more than I already could on a decently built bike. ;D
No Deal. :idiot2:
