What would you like to see ?
« on: June 09, 2014, 10:26 AM »
Other than tasty birds in Bade of the day, what bikes / builds would you like to see ?

I'm planning a project that's never been seen on RAD before which got me thinking what would everyone else like. Pretty much everything has been done now ie all makes/models in every colour and build spec, so what's left to do ?  :)

Sounds very interesting Ash

I'd love to see Vanders prototype street beat surface somewhere and then given to Maurice to bring back to life

I wish for once someone would have the balls to do a non red, white and blue Skyway Ta.
Nice bikes but boring as fook to look at now  :)

oh and Facebook to be brought down permanently, it's not only killing sites like this but society in general!  :tickedoff:

Rant over now  :)

got a few very special things in the pipeline that very few if any of you will have seen  :daumenhoch:

Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

I'd like to see more attention to detail other than what's on the bike itself.

For example, helmets and clothing, era correct plates with replica decal layout, even things like Glynn does and taking the finished bike to the track - it's natural habitat, I love this kind of stuff.

More recently, Andy (DTTDB) taking his first BMX back to his old house, this was brilliant, and sonething I'd like to see more of.

I'm currently bouncing an idea round about an era correct backdrop for photographing my bikes in front of.

Dan, I love the idea of taking your old bike back to where you grew up!  might have to do that once i've finished my GS  :daumenhoch:

Still sourcing bits for it by the way, just need snakebellies and a blue pad set and i'm done  :daumenhoch:

Ash, lets get the speed bike thing sorted for MK15 and we can all get in on the act  :daumenhoch:

Funny you should say that Dan.. I was thinking of keeping a bit of white dog poo in a bag and placing it near a bike while taking the picture.. Living room shots out that idea of course..

This! Building a bike is easy but getting the details right takes time and effort. I love seeing builds like Southern Andys Zeronie in the flesh, but would love to see a build thread outlining all the details as he went through them. You can see so much effort went into that build right down to the matching gear and plate. Would love to see more builds like that unfold in a thread as the parts were sourced and built up.  :daumenhoch:

Bikes like we used to ride bitd, non factory spec bastards, cheapo frames covered in electricians tape to make em the the current colour, bars terribly rattled canned by 13 year olds who have no idea cos it's the 1st thing they've painted, bikes sticker bombed cos pocket money only stretched to stickers, brake lever covers, snide landar flo panels, long axles instead of trick nuts and all that.

That sort of thing.  :daumenhoch:

I would like to see Rad how it was when I first joined, buzzing  :(

I can see so many logged on etc but only ever see the same 5 or 6 people chatting on or starting threads.

I want to see the sales/trades/wanted sections flowing with great parts again. I want to see build threads of complete bikes. I want to see enthusiasm and banter, not bitchiness and over zealous Mods.

As Others have said already though, can we please see some originality in your builds, not the same old same old. Build them like you did as kids  :daumenhoch:

Oh, and I would also like to see someone different win bike of the month  :D
