Any info or input or anything infact would be much appreciat7ed! ;) if people could put up ideas of prices of wrthness also, would be a help as im wanting to flog a few of them, just not sure which ones yet???
Kye
I will put a post up in the readers rides thread as i dont want to be hi-jackign the welcome bit! :)

:) Don`t think they`re worth much TBH,though the Ultra Burner has some good parts & a few people may be interested in the Meteorlite.Pretty sure the Saxon was mass produced,think loads of companies used the same frame? Personally I`d get rid of the Kalkhoff and the Saxon and consider restoring the other 2.All down to personal opinion really,if you enjoy them then keep them all.

ive sent you a pm regarding the metorlite
i had one as a kid i bought it from a big kid when i was about ten.....it was white with all green parts and i loved it to bits :smitten: :smitten:

i think the 3rd picture of the black bars is actually a raleigh burner handlebar pos from a standard mk1 burner,
-
correct my freind, they are mk1 bars so they will be going on the ultra burner! The meteorlite and burner i love but saxon owes me just as much as the burner does ironically so need to make sort of money back from it! Im sure it would sell somewhere, surely?
