Author Topic: Pro Class or Leary Turbo which one. (Read 3408 times)

ORANGEZIPPY · « **on:** November 16, 2011, 10:17 PM »

I've currently got this Pro Class that i've done nothing with, and hanker for a leary turbo.

Trouble is the pro class in an ex factory riders bike, so its just that little bit more special?

Opinions please, as not sure if i should sell this and wait for a mk1 leary to come up, or just been done with this and restore to its former glory.

Looks a little ruff in the pics, but the metal is perfect, and just needs a fresh finish to make good again.

i've taken the grafs and flights off it for the time being.

I am liking the Proclass Myself but if you have no love

for it then maybe the Leary is the way to go??

Both are really nice bikes.. And you happen to have one..! Not a great lover of the goose, but a pro class is the bollocks

ProClass

Not a lot of pro class frames left with original black/smoke chrome on. Would be a crime if it were stripped n resto'd. Extra cool that it's an ex rider's

Gotta build what you love at the end of the day but that would make an awesome survivor build

I think that Leary warrants a full resto

$:-\$

Sprayed rattle can red on those chrome Arayas

So you want a Leary.............

ORANGEZIPPY · « **Reply #16 on:** November 17, 2011, 01:17 PM »

had 3 learys, but sold those all before i had them too long.

as i'm now looking to "finish" my collection, just want to really go for the bikes i 100% want.

know what you mean about stripping the original finish on the proclass, but also think it deserves a full resto to keep it nice.

i bought it direct from the factory rider, nice guy and easy to deal with, Dave Bender, i believe his Brother also used to race.

always on eBay, so will also be looking for the right one there, but want to decide on this first.

Both lovely looking bikes but I'd say go with with what floats your boat and means most to you.
