Post by: retro on July 03, 2016, 11:11:52 AM

Hi all
       Just went up the Putty rd on Scarfeys old bike what a well setup bike.
        Suspension and brakes are fantastic worth every dollar.
        Goes around corners like a new bike.
        Very happy customer.

Bikes don't have frames any more.  Bought this cheap and pulled it apart to fix a common problem with the left cylinder tensioner causing the plastic cam chain followers to break.  All that's left hanging in the breeze is the seat base and the wiring loom.
Note the personally initialled Fuel Tank

Thanks for the Milk Crate idea young Brian.
