Fraz - if I'd have known you did them decals by eye, I wouldn't just have taken em all off the frame......too late though now :( They were fookin good for eyeing up - there were small differences, but pretty much spot on  :daumenhoch:

Betty - Paul's sound as you like - when I got the frame & forks found out that the forks steerer had seperated from the legs and the AD lugs were fooked - messaged him on t'Bay as was just gonna send it back (I know - but wanted it as a rider) and he refunded me....the lot. Can't thank him enough, and if you can think of owt Paul would like fella that I could send to him lmk :)

Just of interest though - stripped the frame down now (tut, tut whoever painted it blue - you didn't strip all the yellow off first ;) ). Now having looked at it in the raw, it's an earlyish MK2 - the AD lugs and pass through hole where added at a later date, so am going to restore back to AD-lugless :)

Danny, Paul wouldn't have known, i don't think it was ever fully built up? (if it was it was only to hang up in the shop) he wouldn't deliberately mislead anyone...  :daumenhoch:


Fraz, i looked at the pics of the blue frame and mine hats off to ya, i wouldn't have known unless i saw em side by side till you pointed it out..  :daumenhoch:

cheers dude, yeah I never set it up either, something else turned up and off it went, the lugs were a bit of a mystery as they were shoddily welded but had original powder on  :-\

Yep, it all came back to me last night. The yellow (now blue) one was mine and I swapped it for your purple SYM one.  :daumenhoch:
