Picked up a Holmes
« on: March 11, 2012, 12:16 AM »
Off to pick up an oversized Holmes tomorrow morning. Its been 15 years since i owned one of these. Im pretty sure i know what im looking at but, can anyone tell me how the serial number might read just so i can tell if its genuine or not.

Here it is:





Once again another muppet has hand painted the frame so i got some work to do but i got for a good price so pretty happy wih it. Looking to swap the Ditch's for Pitch's and the Red Anno Redneck for a Black one if anyones interested. Want to
replicate my bike from 97

It will start with HXL then have a at at least a 4 digit # for build number.

Here is my 94 or 95 serial # HXL4786

Nice score...  :daumenhoch:

Shame about the paint job... though it does look ok in your pics

Had the same thing with a Dirtbike a couple of years ago, looked ok in the pics, nice og green i thought, it had about 5 layers of paint on it...  ;D
