Raleigh Burner, God knows what year its from but ive been told some of the bits on this are worth £££ i got this for nothing was laying on a pile of bricks so i thought "i cant let it suffer" took it and at this moment in slowly restoring it,

what i can make out at the moment it has:

Skyway Tuff II's,
some funky looking grips
and rust! (alot of the stuff)

can anyone help me with the year is and what the name of some of the bits are

Thanks,

Ben

i will give ya some dollar for the wheels lol

It's an early 80's Raleigh Tuff Burner. 82?
It looks like most of the components there are original (grips and possibly bars excluded)
The wheels are valuable if they're in good condition, but then again they belong on that bike - you could restore it as a complete bike, you have almost all the parts already.
A very nice find.

Looks like Cobra grips

the grips are not the ones you get on it everything looks original it wants to look like this 



you really want to go on raleighburner.com to learn how to do everything to restore it

I've said it once and I will say it again. That burner is schweeeeeeeeet! 

[benda666]

i managed to work out what it says on the side of those grips its says "supergoose" and with what looks to be the old Mongoose logo

They do look like cobra grips...

All looks to be original cept the grips... you'll need some oakley F1 spotty grips or fuan do decent copies.

Would you like to sell the bike to me ??

[jimwise68]

They came with those poxy foam grips. The ones that lasted about 10 minutes!

[benda666]

ive had loads of offers but i dont want to sell it, thanks for the offer thought

Yep...all original except the bars and foam grips... If you want to stay true to original spec then foam ones are the way to go

[Waxintaxin]

yea foam ones like grab on ,but rubbish

the tyres are hard to get in the right pattern , but looks a good project for sure
