Those Anlun bars are fantastic, i've got a spare set here. I bought them for one of my race builds but then won a set of MRD bars last week  :LolLolLolLol:
One build a year, the only way to get it right. No rushing involved.

Ain't that amazing , I love builds with Tuffs , almost everytime .

But this Big Gman has transformed it from an "alright,, quirky ,doesn't please everyone kind of bike "into a proper stunner ,with those tweeks

Hats off to ya bud for doing the revamp , it's a belter now  :smitten:

Ooops just seen the Smiley  :-[

I just love dark blue / light blue / white bikes  :angel:

( For the record... I may well be an eejut but I don't need you tellin everyone  :LolLolLolLol: )

ed... i did think about doing it all blue but it wouldn't have looked right with blue tyres and i dont think black would've suited it either, the original white combo i did was too much, the tuffs were a wrong choice and the renthal layback angle was too much with the kashi mx, the aero has a better shape for a layback i think and the chrome parts suit it much better, no offence taken by your comment fella, at least you bothered to comment....you div >:D

im happy with it now and its staying as it is, Dubber your spot on mate, the things ive just mentioned did my head in as soon as id built it, but thats the beauty of this hobby, if your not happy play with it until you are :daumenhoch:

watch it ed cos snav's got my back and hes fookin huge :D

nice1 for the comments lads :daumenhoch:

No worries Ed  :daumenhoch:
I didn't mean it to look like you where a loon  :crazy2:
It just got my back up a bit that's all  :-[

So i'll give you a  :-* and a bit of  :bondage: if i ever meet you as way of an apology   :daumenhoch:
 
:coolsmiley:


 ;D will look forward to that  ^"^

I keep coming back for another look G , can't believe it's the same bike   :)

It is the 3rd reincarntion since you've had and it doesn't need changing again ,, it is unique and I love a well defined custom build as good as any factory spec  8)

Dat is phat maaaaan ;)

Just a suggestion R kid (dont want a good twattin of warringtons finest  ^"^ ) , a freestyler as lovely as that, that looks as rideable as that....might have the rear brake mounted upside down, underneath the brake bridge, that way, if you bring it to ramp city I can framestand it all round the place without standing all over the brake  :4_17_5:
Whats the matter Kid, don't ya like clowns? Don't we make you laugh? Aint we fukkin funny?
