    Na I was thinking of the crappy looking Rover V8 bike that turned up at the Bears race meeting. I think a seagull could have produced better welding on the rear swing arm and the rear axle im sure was a length of galv water pipe

    If you are talking the bears at Ruapuna that was probable the guy who's got the Boss Hog franchise.That bike is probable 20years old by now so shit welding or not it's still going.
