That number plate is fine!  ;)

Looking at these photos I need to bring the bars back. Lol. I swear they are not that far forward in real life. The camera must be lying!  :LolLolLolLol:  or maybe I had a flashback to my burner years!

That is a beauty! Loving the bars! Well worth the wait :daumenhoch: Looks like this could be built by someone in the 80's too, if that makes sense?

Stu you know were good mates but I'm going to be controversial and say sorry I dont like it.

Love Green Masters but I think the white doesnt give it enough contrast.

Big kisses.  :-*  :daumenhoch:
