    Awesome!

    I raced one back in 91 when they were new - it was a great bike then and even today a fresh top end and good rider wouldn't be shamed in club mx on it.

    The only things I can remember we did to them (other than normal maintenance stuff and replacing the mild steel handlebars that bikes used to come with) was fit a more narrow front mud guard, 'cause the standard one was huge and when muddy it would get overloaded with mud and break, and for some reason the sub-frame used to crack around the welds after about 5 meets...check the sub frame carefully!

    Look forward to seeing the finished article.
