    Early 90s MX gears...

    Im after good condition retro MX gear! I just scored an old pair of fox image racing gear, i think about 1990 its bright green and pink haha does anyone have any of that sorta thing kicking around?

    FOX image, Thor fast boys, Answer AK7, Alpinestar Tech 2s lol

    Also considering doing up an old kx250 like around a 1990 ish and putting a new motor in and suspension etc, it will be fun riding around in old school gear on a real old bike that performs! Might have to talk to Mr Motorcycles see if kawasaki still have parts for the old girls!

    Actually if anyone has a KX500 they would be keen to swap for a KXF450 done 20hrs that would be the ticket!!

    Jesus, that page is hilarious, I pissed myself reading the whole site

    I'm sure mum has some of my children's 90s BMX and roller blading paraphernalia in a box in a cupboard somewhere. Knee pads with pink scribbles and `RAD SPORTS' emblazoned on them

    The saddest part of all this (well apart from me pretending I can still ride MX....) is that my early 90's Fox Image gear is still way more comfortable and longer lasting than my new stuff. Wish it wasn't so..... how shall I say it..... bright... Grace and Sophie won't let me wear it in public anymore, but late at night, when no ones around and the full moon's out......
