I asked this question on facebook and got an interesting responce that i thought would go well on this site so here goes with my list of bikes complete or not.

3 x Diamond back HL Turbo series 1 (2 completes and best part of a 3rd all need restoring)
1 x Diamond Back Team Pro
1 x Diamond back Mid Pro
1 x Diamond Back Senior Pro
1 x GT Mach one 1986
1 x Supergoose 1980
1 x Supergoose 1982
1 x Team Hotfoot series one
1 x Haro Master 1988
1 x Haro sport 2006 retro
1 x Kuwahara ET 30th aniversary 2007
1 x Hutch Windstyler
1 x Skyway Street beat
1 x Mongoose retro 25th aniversary 2006
1 x PK Ripper retro 30th aniversary 2007
1 x Quicksilver Team Series 2
1 x Quicksilver series 1
1 x Quicksilver Cruiser
3 x Redline ST-20 1986 (1 NOS and the others in need of restoration)
1 x Redline series 1
1 x Redline Carrera

These are the bikes that come to mind i have so many more of unknown brands that i grabed for parts ect and im sure i have forgotten quite a few also. Most of the above listed bikes are in some stage of restoration waiting for the desired parts or somthing similar.
List your bikes and tell us about them if you like,even if you only have one or 2 bikes tell us about them.

Cheers
Richie

Coasty i didnt realise how many i had until i started to list them you can add to that list about 15 mountain bikes that i bought from the karriong detention centre when they updated. I bought them for the parts but have managed to build a couple of decent mountain bikes with alloy frames shocks and disc brakes. Ill take a pic of the back shed tomorow to show you the pile of parts lol. Oh almost forgot ive got a heap of kids bikes also, i use to do them up and donate them to charities and alike I think i posted a pic of some of the kids bikes i had repaired some time ago on the old forum.

If you're into old school Diamond Back, check out my dedicated DB section at www.retrObsession.net for detailed model information between 1977 and 1986. There's also a link to the retrObsession forum with a dedicated Diamond Back area and other old school interests. Hope to see you there.

That site is great, you've put a lot of work into that, great to use as a reference when looking at Diamond Back's.

forgot a couple and just got a couple more

2 X Team Hotfoot (one you can all see in the other thread and the other Waza helped me to get up from Vic about a year ago)
1 X Team Quicksilver ( yep another)
1 X Unknown but looks similar to a Skyway TA and is Cro-Mo
1 X Early supermax (with the Euro BB)
1 X Black Chrome Hotfoot (redline style frame)
1 X Unknown but looks like a Generic frame similar to the redline style mongoose

and im sure ive missed some but as i slowly sort my Garage out  and remove all my storage from mums ill keep updating the list.

Hey Sparky if you want to send me some banners or artwork i can include your site in the links section when i roll out the update in the next few weeks. Allways great to have a good reference when collecting, building or just reminising.

Over the past year and some I've made a point to cleanup all the parts stashes and loose ends.
Now I just have complete bikes and a couple of specific parts piles for upcoming builds.  Felt GREAT to get the clutter cleaned up and under control.

Older Completes:
79 Schwinn Sting, too clean to ride without guilt
79 Raleigh Rampar R10, survivor right down to the original grease.
80 Team Mongoose, great rider.
77 DG racer, still in detailing phase.
88 GT Vertigo, many retro features
78 Panda Pacer, many retro features
81 Kuwahara KZ1, rider for nephew (he's 2 now)
early 80s Mongoose Motomag, rider for other nephew (he rocks this bike)
90s Elf expert, rider for grandson (he's 1 now)
84 GHP cruiser, minty classic, brother's rider.
79 Rampar R11 XL, given to buddy as a rider, so we can roll OG.

Newer
2005 Standard cruiser
2007 Eastern Ace of Spades
2004 SE Team Quad (for nephew as soon as he tires of the motomag)

Next build's pile of parts: Quicksilver or Nickel Supergoose once I find a frame.
Currently it's only Assess hubs, Ukai rims, Ame round grips, Tange TRX fork, Elina Lightning bolt seat
