Standard Burner, Puch and so on were all aimed at the starters/council estate kidTorker, TA, Pro Class, PK Ripper were all race bread.As a 'council estate kid', I had a Torker and a Pro Burner but according to your wording, I should have had only a Burner or an Ammaco I'm sure there are many others on here who grew up in a similar background

Yes it is, now has anyone got any hutch cranks or grips they want to sell for more than a weeks wages
What about a Diamond Back Silver Streak then? as that's what I had as a street bike when I was a kid.Or would only a Diamond Back Viper be considered as a street bike as it was lower end?
Yep and meanwhile, Pete benice has died and come back...Zombenice

I disagree with ring being "street".

So is Terry's Torker a pit bike or not then?

All I can add to this thread is this.I had a Skyway T/A bitd, with Hutch cranks, Graphite Tuffs the full works but I only ever rode it on the street, so in my opinion.... You lot moan like a bunch of fooking girls, grow a set and get the fook on with it.
