Just finished this a week or two ago.  Crappy pic, but the weather has been to ass nasty to shoot it proper.

Finally! I get to see a purple Dirtbike built! I love those frames(without 990's!) but hardly ever see em runnin'...

Killer bike! I'm diggin' the Dyno seat too.  :daumenhoch:

A while back I paid $100 for a Green Redneck/Wedgie combo, a super fookin' clean 1" DitchFork, SR speedtraps and these wheels.  I never rode or particularly cared for mags.  But I had them and they worked out to be damn near free.  I tossed them on, this to get it rolling, and it grew on me.  Lends to the bike's theme.  Purple, Black and Blue. 

This bike is called, "The Bruiser".  Only a matter of time before it hurts me.

I'm building a chrome Holmes for the track next, that one will have Peregrine HP-48's like my red Holmes.  Can't do them all the same.

I'm not super into the mags.  But as I mentioned, it fits my Purple, Black and Blue theme.  All black laced, wheels are too 2000. 

If I could afford some nice spoked race wheels for my Holmes, I'd put my HP-48's on this guy.  The mags do make it look kinda mean.  This song is the reason I haven't taken them off.
