That is lovely

That's seriously nice

All black tyres will finish it off a treat, I've had several sets of Aggressors land recently and all at a decent price so they're still out there

Seen all John's bikes in the flesh

, his manic attention to detail is the bane of his life

Okay so the guy has a problem,

but his Redlines are up there with the very very best
