My Grail 88 BEAT (They're like buses) LOL :-)
« on: May 12, 2013, 11:56 AM »
Well after being lucky enough to get hold of a black 88 as a rider i also picked up a lovely blue one.  sods law i then got offered another and after seeing Mike Canning riding his red one the seed was sown.  It got shipped off to Dan who worked his usual magic, then Del did his as well and the start of a factory build was under way.  It wasn't till i took a close look at the spec i realised this was not going to be an easy (or cheap) build, but hey.........i'd never done a factory build before but the frame and forks demanded it.

I know these aren't everyones cuppa tea so no worries if you don't like it  ;D  but i love it! and i'm so so happy with how it's turned out.






Excuse my crappy camera skills  ;D

Stunning Rob, love it.

Your seat however, appears to have what can only be described as a 'dogs lipstick'

 :D
