right boyz i know its very early on but i wanted to take a few snaps , motor should be here within 10 days so i can start chopping the frame ....
i cleaned most of the crap off the frame , took me an hour with petrol , caked on it was .... so the frame now has centre stage in my little nest cause my KTM is ready for 09

nice pw, I found a white '85 with red trim so i allowed it in the garage

looks like i am going wiht retro red bailey , ta for the opinions too

its nostalgic and has a bit of background to it

this is somewhere between california and dublin
its painful waiting around , the frame material arrived yesterday thanks to roostius , top man , should be starting the build real soon

i just sorted out a deal for these bad boyz
carbon centred red hubs , black spokes , red nipples and black rim

those wheels are freakin awsome.

right i suppose this is where is starts , not much done , but cut the frame , just need to trim the down spar , and make up mounts , should have them done by the weekend , then i will sort out the welding
