Have you sorted the yokes out yet? Only ask cos I've a spare kr yoke with no stem fitted if that's any help to you (FOC of course :lol: )?
The last time Liverpool Fc won the league, George Michael was black and Michael Jackson was straight or visa versa, it's that long ago I get confused.

i love it. you have to turn it into a tz rep though as the swingarm apes that of the old tz more than a horrible steel one ever could. theres a lot (too many?) lc's with s'fighter type bars etc on. nothing wrong with that mind just that an lc in racer mode is more apt.

This is the paint job that came with the bike, but i too had the white tank with a red speedblock and so if i can sell this tank and panel set i will go for this.
I have some new side panels and tail piece but i'm on the look out for a good solid rust/dent free tank....anyone :wink:

You know I look at the hybrids with, kr running gear and I keep thinking I should stick them on mine, and I really should get round to sticking some kr carbs on it :oops:

Thing is I enjoy riding it it with it's pushbike tyres and everything. :lol:
