Riot's are out there, you just got to keep your ear to the ground and wait it out. Some guy on OZ BMX just picked up a 1st gen one with early forks as well. I say keep this as is and continue the hunt for a WAL. Would be amazing to have both in your collection.  8)

Its your bike though so do with it what you will.  :daumenhoch:

I'd swap it for a Riot Jon  :) will keep as is at the moment  :) I sent Ron a link to this, and haven't heard back about getting some decals ... so he might agree with you  :LolLolLolLol:

anyway - its your fault for making yours look so sexy  :smitten:

The decals are getting peeled on this very soon ... and the drill is coming out  >:D gonna make the Big Boy a bashy Riot ( MK2  :angel: )

Ron has sorted me out with a Riot decal set, a Riot bashguard and a replacement Big Boy decal set if I ever want to return it to being what it was.

Thanks to Marky Munn I now have a 2hip Stimulator fork & stem combo on the way with some Flat bars  :smitten:

Me too Chris ... I would really like a proper WAL but nothing is around at the sec so Rioting up the Big Boy is the best option... I've got a backup set of Big Boy decals off Ron as well  :)
