Like i said a few weeks back, i was working on my final build. It was a bike that i always wanted as a kid and probably my favorite build,as sourcing the parts was hard.

I have basically ripped off Jazzchimps bike but i had to!!!!

It is a Fiola rep the same as he rode in KOS in 84.

I am waiting on a few bits and bobs from the states which apparently were the correct parts he had. I wont tell you what they are until they arrive!

When they do i will get some more pics up of it finally finished.

Hope you like. A big thanks to Pete Quad for the input, Jazzchimp and JAY. Also to COZ and SBD!!!.

ALL NOS apart from the f+f and tuffs.

You've probably looked into far more than me but was it black pads on kos bike?

very nice though Nick....Oakley 2's instead of a'me? What are the secret bits, come on.....

Bring the bars back an inch or two, looks like your trying to suck yourself off when they're that far forward....dirty boy

You wilh have to wait till they arrive till i let the cat out of the bag.

Honest this is the last. May still buy the odd part to improve builds but i have all i want now.

mark 2 · « **Reply #14 on:** May 22, 2008, 03:42 PM »

Were there black pads on it at some other point? Maybe when it was in the UK I'm thinking of. Aerospeeds too at that time?

munners · « **Reply #15 on:** May 22, 2008, 03:47 PM »

Cant confirm dates and where he used these parts but he 100% did use Aerospeeds and a black padset.

munners · « **Reply #16 on:** May 22, 2008, 03:49 PM »

Apparently Fiola also used to take 2 identical bikes to every competition!?

$:-\$

Not sure if every factory rider would have?
