love the crackle effect decals... :)
-
not enough survivors about, lovin it. :4_17_5:
-
Cheers all :)
The decals have probably gone like that from the sun , it lived all its life in the states till it was brought over here in feb ;)
:coolsmiley:
-
Love it!! Its got that look as if its been well loved :daumenhoch:
-
keep it as it is
-
Yep.
BMX bikes are like t shirts, leather jackets or Keith Richards face. Lived in is deffo the coolest look.
-
That looks mint! keep it as it is as everyone knows how big of a fan i am of survivor rides :4_17_5:
-
Paul, leave it as it is bud, and ride it like you stole it >:D
All my builds are riders, but recently I've been tarting them up so they are carpet-queens and I just end up selling them as I daren't ride them. Mongooses were like Raliegh Burners in the USA, every fooker had one, so this should be treated with the same love..... I still ride my 1978 Team Mongoose with a re-welded set of Flights on it and will be doing so round the track at MK this year, so see you there bud :daumenhoch:

Liked the Ukia's with black tyres myself
Try the black tyres on don't think the red ones are doing anything for it
Fooking love the over all look though :daumenhoch:
-
Think it looks better as it was with the Ukai's :daumenhoch:
A nice colourful survivor just seems right 8)
-
I love the look of that. Im gonna put a Mongoose 'rat bike' together for MK10. Bits n pieces of everything! ;D
Best thing is you can still ride em!
-
Ukais back on then get it outside for a wheely n curb hoppin sesh
-
mmmm

-
tuffs, gusset goose and tuffs are just right for me paul :smitten: its just screamin to be riden that puppy, spens right what he says you build em up to nice and your scared to ride the fookas , got this one here but i just can't take her outside :-\

-
i like that as is 8).
to be honest im liking seeing more and more bikes in that condition than the as new look that everybody goes for.
its a shame to take all that ageing and history off.
you go to any vw show nowdays and see how many people are round the old ratty cars etc compared to the total mint show cars.
leave em all i say :daumenhoch:
-
Cheers fellas :)
I think i'm gonna leave it as it is now, the more i look at it the better i like it :smitten:
Dean that blue goose is lovely mate :smitten: :4_17_5:
:coolsmiley:
-
i say i say best left alone mate :daumenhoch:
-
Try the black tyres on don't think the red ones are doing anything for it
X2
Reckon it's worth trying her with black tyres on the tuffs Paul - or even some old cheng shin C183 all black knoblies - always like them on a gusset goose 8)
-
Tried the comp 3's off the ukai's John and they just didn't look nice at all, too black :-\ if there had been any black on the bike then it may have looked ok :-\
So i kept with the red Knarlers ;)
-
:daumenhoch:
-
Liked the Ukai's myself Paul but I have always preferred spokes over Tuffs !
Either way, I love the old gusset geese :daumenhoch:
Could this be the start of a few facelifts mate ??? :D Get some of those NOS packets opened ;)
-
