That's funny man I had that bike in my kitchen for the night haha ,dave took my chain off my bike and used it to do the wall of death at the fair in hastings coz I had a thicker chain he wanted so it wouldn't snap with all the vertical peddling, he also ripped up my s&m frame pad and stuffed it in his shoe!!  I rode his bike home and dropped it back at stu's flat the next day and got my dirt bike back . Dave clymer was like a legend to me and my mates at the time, good memories of him being over here definately well worth the chain and the pad!
