Hi all,

Just thought I'd say hi as a new member. I've been scanning some old school sites recently as I'd love  to get back into freestyle riding. My first "proper" BMX was bought back in 1984 (ish) and I wish I still had it. Kuwahara Exhibitionist frame and forks (white), white Skyway Tuff II's, Haro Vector bars etc, etc. My gran sold it to a neighbour back in 91 ish for the measly sum of £50 Sad cause iwasn't using it....... God I wish i still had that bike. Who knows maybe I'll stumble across it one day and manage to buy it back......  Wink

Gday Ex.
You can always go door knocking the neighbours to see if that bike is still around-possible gathering dust. Ive done it and Im sure plenty of others have too.
Buy it back for 25 quid and make a profit.
Is it like this

Welcome Scottie,
What year is your hotfoot, it will be on RHR dropout after the GO eg. GO 882 is August 82
Its easier to get parts when we know what year.
