No cut outs on the forks, are they all like that ?

so jealous Glen, me, i wouldn't care how much it cost, i'd have to throw it about on a track to remind me of 85/86.
(that weld on the b/b does look a bit unsightly).

I hope when mine comes that the welds are better than that, there is a load of undercut on the BB and just below the where the seat clamp goes looks like he has messed up the weld and ground it smooth.
I used to be a TIG welder and that really does look naff welding, I would complain buddy as you paid good money for that T/A

Looks sweet from 3 foot, but close up those welds do look sus and I am personally glad I didnt take up their offer.
I'd rather get an original stripped, powdered and decaled for similar money.
