Revcore - no more pics yet as I finished it about 11pm last night. Will take some more in the daylight.

Sam - yep, looking forward to taking it on a track. None nearby though so will have to plan a trip somewhere.

Post by: se on January 18, 2006, 11:36 PM: Gregster - you know it's a nice bike... ;-) Anyway, question for you - your dad kindly welded back together some forks for me in 1983 after I bust them and also risked irreprebable damage to my knackers at the hands of a yellow copy Kashimax MX seat - trivia: what was the frame? Yes - and how is your 20ins build coming along? And that pit bike?..

Post by: gregster on January 19, 2006, 08:57 AM: In answer to your trivia question Steve..... not got a clue. I only ever remember your GT. ;)
