Title: Mini Pro
Post by: The Styler on April 13, 2010, 08:56 AM: Because i know you lads love a Burner, thought i'd show ya this... :daumenhoch:

right, here goes, i started out with a frame picked up after Billing last year and had the idea to do a mini to hang on the wall at home, anyway within 2 days i had made the R'gusset's from looking in the quality BW pages and also removed the rear dropouts and made my own similar to the Pro, i was also goin to do the same with the forks but managed to weld the 3 round holes up, re-shape them and re-drill them to look like dragon forks, i also stamped the rear dropout with number and Koizumi logo :cool: , anyway here are the pics and thanks and spec list below.... :wink:

Personally think it is much more rewarding to get your hands dirty and come up with something like this, as opposed to some open the packet and bolt it on NOS builds you see ;)
