yep Ive spent way to much on evilbay again, but hey i have partially forfilled a dream and bought a bike that i remember lusting over way BITD and at the time i honestly thought i had a chance of getting one as they were so much cheaper than the equivalent in a bigger brand. So here it is and I'm sorry if i out bid you but i just had to have it     



click on the pick if you want to see the auction.

nice score Richie, I knew you were chasing one for a while

[COASTY]

Damn Richie, that looks sweet. Nice score.

Ohh mate, if I knew it was you I wouldn't have kept bidding, damn ebay and there hidden bidder policy, how do you even know if your being bid scammed. Its a great bike anyway mate, I hope you cherish it as it should be
PS what were you going up 2??

Your bike brings back memories, my first race bike was a Repco Cr-Mo and it had the exact same components just a different frame. It was a great bike for the money.

PS what were you going up 2??

its funny you should ask, Im using dail up at the moment so i didnt have the luxury of last second bidding so i set my limit to $278.89 and for some reason about 2 minutes before the end i decided to bump it up to $322.92 im glad i did as my slow connection wouldnt have won me the bike had i of left it to chance in the last few seconds.

nice score Richie, I knew you were chasing one for a while

Yep i finally got one with all the parts original to it. I did get another one from one of the vbmx members some time ago but it had all its parts swapped out so to find a original one im stoked.

I think next time im bidding on somthing ill anounce it on here so were not bidding against each other.

Now i just have to make up some BS about how i got it as the Girly will hit the roof if she knows ive been spending money again.

Nice score Richie.
I wanted one of these too back in the day. They were a great value bike with all of the right parts.
I considered bidding but it was a Melbourne auction!
Bring it to the next gathering so that we can check it out.

I'm sure your partner has heard every excuse by now....

Postman came bearing gifts this morning, I gave it a tub and assembled it immediately.














Sorry for all the pics but i haven't had a lot to get excited about lately   
Cheers

yeah i was suprised at the quality of the wheels and anodised parts, it only really needs a small amount of work to bring it back to its former glory.
Thanks for working on a number plate design i really appreciate it, im about as artistic as monkeys bum.

Cheers
Richie

[COASTY]

Very nice Richie. Thats in great condition. Better than a lot of restores I've seen.
I'm a monkeys bum too so don't feel bad mate
