Help...

[othomas2]

I've been offered this PK ripper to exchange, yes (don't laugh) a mk I custom burner - pretty near show condition.



But I don't know much about them at all... I've been told it's a '90 ish ripper expert, USA made.

Do I bite his arm off or hold on to my burner which means quite a lot to me...

What's it's worth do you know as is ? There is a minor ding in the top tube which I've seen.

Please help... thanks in advance.

or hold on to my burner which means quite a lot to me...

If it means a lot to you why would you let it go?

[othomas2]

Well, just the effort I've put into it. Nothing sentimental.

That comment was more amaimed at those here who don't really rate the burner that highly.

I've been riding a decent burner - aero pro, and going back to a mk ! burner didn't feel too nice. 

So I'm thinkin another decent rider in the line up might be good.

Mate if it was me, that thing would be mine already. I'd do it.

   think the stickers have been changed ? i got one in
   94 get a invert stem to keep the front end down in
    the air . (best bike i ever had so do it).

Ripper

The only problem you may have is that Ripper will make the Aero Burner feel like a dog to ride

Get it swapped quick before he changes his mind.

I hated my PK back in the 80's. I never liked the way it rode. Thats why I kept the Supergoose. And the goose didn't snap at the sight of a skatepark.

[othomas2]

This what I'd be swapping.



Thanks for your replies.

Deal or no deal ?

DEAL 

[PK6061]

The 90s ripper is nothing like the 80s ripper its much stronger .
       don't forget this is a race bike and not for the park.

keep the burner 

[MeddlE]

Yep, keep the Burner.  Failing that, you could always do what you feel is best.

[phantom photon]

Keep the Burner - then again I'm biased on this one 

[othomas2]

Thanks for the replies chaps, I've decided to keep hold of the burner. I know it's only a burner but it's not like I can do anything more than I already could on a decently built bike. 

No Deal.
