not sure if this will qualify and sorry to drag it up again  :LolLolLolLol: , 

wondered if you might consider this and the attached  threads in the link? 

 be warned it is a bit of a saga, just read through it and shouldn't of done  :-[ :-[    :LolLolLolLol:  strangely enough i posted the first thread up just before MK    :D  and i stand by my statement for a small prize awarded for a deffinate id on the f+f cos i still have'nt got a clue  :daumenhoch:







and the epic saga  resulting in a bike that is just gathering dust,    and left me firmly sat on the "ride em don't polish em "   side of the fence   :LolLolLolLol: :daumenhoch:

Inspired by a jubilant and busy sounding Kappy on the phone this morning i decided i needed some fun too. Out the door went the planned days work and instead i set about designing the build off trophy.

Kappy is always saying i'm special (i can lick my own elbow  :crazy2: ) and i think the trophy will be just as special.

Will get a pick up in a few days when its done  :4_17_5:

The Shocks are quite a rarity and look sick when done properly. Good luck doing it 'Raleigh Justice' with £175.....
