Post by: Weeksy on October 26, 2008, 08:11 AM: It seems there are man.

I couldn't believe my eyes - came to my garage about 4 pm on a bright and sunny Sunday back in June, and it was emptied

So organised - only my car was left - thieving truckers.

Thanks for the comments dude, thinking about taking them out today and getting them dirty >:D

Regarding all the stolen bikes, perhaps we should have a stolen bikes section on here , like on the VW forums, then we can all keep our eyes peeled for them?

Post by: Weeksy on October 27, 2008, 10:47 AM: Stidds,

It was your bike than inspired me fella, but not quite with so many aftermarket bits - it is the Mrs bike after all!

Crooch, what's wrong those tyres my good man!?

Post by: Weeksy on October 27, 2008, 12:37 PM: You think it needs gumwalls like Stidds GT?

You think it needs gumwalls like Stidds GT?

yours? or the missus's? yours yes - gt no. Only cos you've now got a retro bike rather than your team which was fully in the NS garage, this is so more OS and i just think it would suit amber walled comps rather than all black NS tyres.

Post by: Weeksy on October 27, 2008, 12:52 PM: I think you are right fella.

Stidds, what are you running on your machine man?
Title: Re: Just finished a couple of new school builds - your comments please!
Post by: stidds on October 27, 2008, 07:02 PM: Weeksy,

The tyres on my GT are Primo V-Track II.
Title: Re: Just finished a couple of new school builds - your comments please!
Post by: Weeksy on October 28, 2008, 07:51 AM: I don't think they are available in gumwalls anymore, sure I checked when I bought mine dude
Title: Re: Just finished a couple of new school builds - your comments please!
Post by: double chevron on October 28, 2008, 08:32 AM: I like them !!!
Good looking bikes, and must be worth taking them to the track, well done!

Sorry to hear about how the first ones vanished :-\

Post by: Weeksy on October 28, 2008, 09:49 AM: Thanks for all yuor comments fellas

Hopefully this weekend they may see the light of day, weather permitting!

Sounds paranoid, but I am not happy with them in the garage anymore, so they are in the kitchen!
