Title: REDLINE PL24 - Before & after
Post by: baldbmxer on October 16, 2007, 06:09 PM

I used to race this around 1985/86. The PL24 is a monster to get going out of the gate but once going its like a comfy chair to ride and really stable in the air.

Pics are for before and after. Sadly when polishing the forks before chroming the monkey doing it fell asleep an polished the welds out of the forks. I guess a front brake will cover the welds though!
