Title: Re: my 'ratlook' dirtbike
Post by: Steve Shindig on February 13, 2008, 08:23 AM: This bike reminds me of my first introduction to S&M... after a Backjam jam one year.

I went with a blinged southsea style chrome Big Daddy, saw kids rocking dirty S&M and instantly converted. I never looked back. That's a pretty real bike dude. So rad.

Agreed!

I remember racing in Philly here in the states back in the early 90's and seeing all these guys on S&M's that looked like this one! Just totally ratty. I was almost embarrased to be on mine as it was clean(at least by their standards).

Great stuff!
