Redline RL20a - happy at last?
« on: August 15, 2010, 01:43 PM »
Some of you may remember me building this up but I never felt the love for it even though I hunted a while to find one.  ::)




Anyway I did a trade with Mark J a while back but then bought it back from him at MK, the plan was I'd make it into a replica of the original Prostyler, luckily I kept the back end chrome  :)



Being a fussy tw@t, I thought i was cheating so set to work drawing up the original decals and sprayed the BB area black so I could put it back how it was (sort of albeit different colour and white forks) and here it is, with a custom colour set of 1986 RL20a decals, I'm going to retire my Streetbeat rider and put some of the parts on this so it will be used (rarely)




I vowed to myself never to make another custom set of decals for one of my builds so I've broken my rule. they took ages to do but I think they came out great..

Looks great, I always like that first build but the re-vamped white frame looks cool  :coolsmiley: .

Well i have to say del if what you have just got up to with that doesn't sort your love out for it, then nothing will. That looks cracking mate and well thought out. I am imagining the parts from your street beat on it and i can't wait to see it together now. :coolsmiley:
