    My RM400N is coming together nicely

    Should be finished soon. Almost be a shame to get it dirty. NOT.

    Very nice mate. I've had around 6 or 7 KX500's over the years. Never had a CR500, but did own an 83 CR480 for a wee while. RM400's are fucking tame by those standards, but still fun. Was originally gonna sell this RM, but might have to keep it after all and sell my super low hour one instead.

    Look after those big smokers mate.

    That's one stunning lookn' rebuild crasher and I know good things take time,but fer crying out loud the ice age was quicker.The heater in the pic is a nice touch too.

    Spectro are holding a couple of natural terrain rounds over the next couple of months (vmx class included)and some wickedly fast tracks are planned further on afield up north.

    Heres a ride I prepared back in 2004...all done from whoa to go in less than a month.
    Hopefully it'll help get the lead out...

    Nope. The CR and the 125N for the girly friend are coming from Ohio, and the 400N from a guy by the name of Larry in Auburn California.
