There, fixed it for you! Only joking mate - couldn't agree more. I spend as much time on the Museum as I do on here and maybe it's just because the bikes and part lists are more like the ones we knew and loved bitd, but the builds on here often tick more boxes for me than those on the other side of the pond.

Those Haro's are cracking
