Probably get bombarded with abuse from the Burner Bashers! But here it is anyway....

Finished this morning. Please be kind!

I have no shame in saying that is sweet. An ultra burner is on my wants list. One of that quality would be a dream.

Very nice

My first proper bike was a super burner.

Thanks Kelly.
You should recognise the seat. Its one of the Kasi Copies you sold to DaveMac1974 (I didn't have Paypal, so he got two from you)

Thanks for helping without even knowing

Very impressive...

Thanks Guys... Expected some Burner Abuse but you have all been really positive.

Really makes a build worth it when people give you positive remarks..Â

This is the bike 3 months ago...(hidden from the Wife!)

Glad you approve!!!! I love the Black & Gold Ultra!

That is one of the nicest Burners I've seen. They always looked classy back in the day, and they still cut the mustard now. well done to a top job.

Yup reminds me of May 82 when I picked mine up. Didn't stay in that condition for long though

Nice build.

Cheers guys! Really did expect my 'Post' to go un-noticed because its Burner related.

So chuffed you all think it looks good... There is a possibility I may be at the Old School Bournemouth Event, just trying to talk the wife round... So anyone there may get to check it out in the 'flesh'...

Thanks again for all your nice feedback!!

Love it mate , see the original forks were TX tange , so an early frame and forks
want a raleigh spanner? just to really give it that boxfresh look

Glad this burner got the props it deserved its a killer resto IMHO

Burners look fookin elish when done right, this one and the ones in the museum are testimony to this, but your all still gypsys

Nice build, well done.

oberonspacefruit · « **Reply #19 on:** July 23, 2005, 03:57 PM »

very nice build beardy. somehow that looks like a real bmx... is the geometry different on ultra's?

beard1973 · « **Reply #20 on:** July 23, 2005, 09:54 PM »

Same geometry I am afraid. Only the tange framed models had 'proper' angles as you guys would say!

But thanks for your compliments... despite it being a Burner!

Mr Rusty was so impressed by your Ultra Butner that he made his Hutch into a replica. It does look nice though, even if it does lack that Raleigh class....lol
