VECTOR MARK 2 "revamped"
« on: December 11, 2009, 06:31 PM »
spoke to steve  "firebird" and he came up with the idea for the pads  "which i love" and had a chat with andy  "bigplinky" and he had a old pro class rim and i had a spare one also so i painted the rimas and hubs del done some very nice black and chrome  "pro class decals " off my mate  "del" and got some great ribbon in chrome and red , tried the red but it looked to much so i went with chrome and also put some nos  :LolLolLolLol:  mx 900,s on with matching levers in red



                SO  MR BEARD SHE IS A OUT AND OUT RACE BIKE NOW    ;) ;) ;)  .




this was her the other month





and this is her now revamped

Lookin' better Neil  :daumenhoch: .

As a true racer I'd dump the front brake , steve did well on the pads  ;) ( I'll keep my NOS ones all packed away & snug  ;) ) .

Very Exclusive,

the pro class rims made the vector very elegant and the pads made it complete.

Cool MK2 version of your Vector mate!

I don't think so Craig ,,, just counting from the close ups

Neil's done a 4 cross build  not 3  , that's all

Then again ,, I could be wrong too  ;D
