The Budgie is where it was at!!   It was a kids bike but wow, it was so light...  and easily damaged.   I think my cousin had a Boxer or Striker.   I had a raleigh Burner BMX with yellow mag wheels, my mate had the ultra burner, I was jealous as his was basically completely chrome underneath the gold transparent paint!!

Before I pass comment, how old do you think those two lasses were when the photos were taken?

 

NQ.

That first one on the grifter about 21 either way she can come round here and ride on my chopper!!! (don't put a picture up of what she looks like now) just leave me with my thoughts.

I collect them. I have 14 now. Mostly stuff from the 90s and very early 2000s when I use to ride semi pro.

Was the last restoration I did. Finished it about two weeks back.

Finished that one about two months back. That's usually how long it takes my slow old ass to fully restore a bike now.

That was a new build. And some of the rest...

And what I actually get around on.
