    Blade

    Well since WT is giving us the run down as he builds his bike into wheelie perfection I thought I'd do the same. He's a few photos of it as it's been changing.

    I bought the Blade to turn into a stunt bike. Been slowly hacking away at it, so here she is as it stands a the mo'. Still got a wee way to go and I'll add photos of it as it takes place.

    This is the day I bought it.

    Very nice - looks much prettier than our fugly beast.

    Nice sprocket there. Are you as proud of yours as WT is of his (to the point of taking it along to the KB track day, displaying it at the front of our pit and dragging people along to admire it)?

    The extra weigh will in theory stabalize the rear more while doing a stoppie or shoot it up higher if you rear brake with the wheel off the ground......

    That being said it probably won't make feck all difference in that department

    Nice one mate... as sson as i flag the student lifestyle/get some money somehow i hope to undertake a similar project.... Not really trying too much stuff as I don't want to wreck my only mode of transport:slap:
    Lump lingered last in line for brains,
    And the ones she got were sort of rotten and insane...

    That looks farking cool. Well done larriken.

    WT, I await to see your beast.
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods
