Paul, leave it as it is bud, and ride it like you stole it
All my builds are riders, but recently I've been tarting them up so they are carpet-queens and I just end up selling them as I daren't ride them. Mongooses were like Raliegh Burners in the USA, every fooker had one, so this should be treated with the same love..... I still ride my 1978 Team Mongoose with a re-welded set of Flights on it and will be doing so round the track at MK this year, so see you there bud

Liked the Ukia's with black tyres myself
Try the black tyres on don't think the red ones are doing anything for it
Fooking love the over all look though

Think it looks better as it was with the Ukai's
A nice colourful survivor just seems right
