Hi Tony,

I've seen some projects before now, but that's shocking - you obviously haven't heard the term "rod for your own back"?! Laughing Seriously though it's a credit to you and I can't wait to see it in the Summer.

Darin


Cheers Darin!
You want to see my next one Laughing




Yep - you're certifiable!! Laughing Laughing Laughing

The RD looks incredible - you must be very pleased with how it's shaping up. I can see a great future in motorcycle restoration for you!! Not Worthy hehe

Hey Tony,

I honestly don't know what to say - the RD looks fantastic, and takes me back to 19,err,83 when I had my silver and black RD250F (shortly after my white and red RD250F got lunched by a daft cow in a Marina - but that's another story!) You must be well pleased with the result?! And where the hell did you find the time to do the Fizzer as well?!?! Shocked Shocked Shocked

So what next on the list??? Cool

Cheers

Darin
