i took this bike in the end for £205. the super pros are almost mint. that was realy all i wanted from it but once i got it i decided it should be a keeper.
this is what i want those decals for darker :daumenhoch:
any ideas on colour scheems im sending it to super bike dan once i know what colour to do it the forks and bars need doing to but there are no dents or dings on it.

i thought maybe getting holmes decals done in hutch font and doing it in hutch pink. lol
i always loved the way that s&m took the p*ss out of stuff that way.

maybe im nuts' quite like that candy red to . :laugh:

lol, i think u are probably right

while i was down with SBD the other day i had a look at the candy red, and he had just got the candy blue in

i think the hutch holmes stichers would look great with the candy blue?

i had an NG holmes done in nato green and that came out great the, pic is in on one of my posts, and im thinking of stripping my other NG down and having it done in the blue   :) :)

SBD had far to many choices

there is a post that i started on the first page of this mid section, its called, i "finally got some pictures"

it shows my 1" holmes, my built NG holmes, and the nato flat green NG holmes that im building at the moment

i saw the candy red on a bike and also on harris' STA and it really pops, the blue had only just arrived so didnt have anything painted, but showed me a few pics and it seemed to look super bright, thats why i have told him i will be going to get the black NG done once i finish the green one

the blue looked so good in the picture  :) :)

let me know what u think of the green NG, i have managed to get quite a few bits to start the build mostly from guys on here (  thanks again guys  ), but im still looking for a few finishing bits for the bike

yeah thats a nice colour. looking at those scans brings back memories. cant say ive seen a homeless player other than in mags. i bet they are rocking horse sh*t .
im really undecided on a colour scheme for this build i think its because f&f with bars is alot to powder in one colour but i dont want to do forks black like one of those modern off the shelf bikes you see on every corner now days. maybe i should invest in a little chrome for the front end?
