Post by: Stodgy on May 09, 2007, 06:25 PM: If you could have just 6 bikes in an old/mid collection, what would they be?

82/3 SE PK Ripper
84/5 Hutch Trickstar
83 Skyway TA
84 GT Pro Performer (got, my original from BITD)
92 Hoffman Condor (got)

What think you?

84 DB HL Turbo (got)
81 PK Ripper (got)
85 Skyway TA (got)

Post by: Jazzchimp on May 09, 2007, 06:34 PM: you can straight away see why rippers fetch the big money
Title: Re: If you could choose just 6 bikes, what would they be?
Post by: macmark on May 09, 2007, 06:36 PM: For me it would be:

Mongoose Motomag, like my first bike bitd.
Kuwahara KZ1, with graphite Z rims like my 2nd Bike
Early Looptail P.K. Ripper. Always wanted one bitd.
Skyway TA. Same as above.
Candy Apple Red Trickstar. Almost got one in white bitd but some donut in Superbike dropped it and scratched it so I didn't buy it.
Green Skyway Streetbeat. Last BMX I ever owned and probably the nicest bike I ever rode.

Post by: Flatcap on May 09, 2007, 06:42 PM: Tuff question!

In no particular order but here goes.....

82/83 PK Ripper - probably my all time favourite.
MKI Haro Freestyler in chrome
MKI Haro Freestyler Sport in white
82/83 SE Quadangle in Powder Blue
GT Pro Performer in Yellow (Fiola style)
Craig Campbell Prolite in chrome (probably one of the best handeling bikes I've ever rode - very underated at the time

It actually took me longer than I thought it would if I'm honest, I paused several times over my choices and made some hard decisions - good post fella!

Daz.

Post by: Jt on November 05, 2012, 02:00 PM: i've been through pretty much most of my wishlist over the years, and have trimmed down to where i want to be, with a couple of variables to keep me interested....

1. kuwahara laserlite - the one i wanted when i was a kid, but folks couldnt afford. i now have a real nice survivor
2. Kuwahara nova - the one i got from my parents and the one i used and abused for a number of years - restored a nice one to my childhood spec.
3. 83 GT Pro - in black, as per the only real pro i knew, which was scott williams - about to be redone to make perfect.
4. Robinson R gussett - inconic bike where we grew up ( near Alans) - needs tweaking but its near as damnit there...

the rest are just stuff i icked up when back into the hobby, which are all good, and all evolving...

to include a DY JMC, a kuwahara cruiser, another laserlite, and a Hutch pro racer...

some of which will make way for a chrome torker 280X when i can find one. ( i had one of the best available, now in the hands of Mark.j)

wouldnt mind a tuff burner like my first bmx.....one day.

Post by: OrgasmDonor on November 05, 2012, 02:10 PM: after years of buying building riders that feel right for me i wittled my bikes down to 5 perfect riders/racers. thus these are the 5 bikes i have carefully chosen
