Thought I'd better practice doing some tyres in case i'm needed to change some at Stafford!

14 minutes 17 seconds! 3 minutes slower than my record oh well! :lol:

Looks absolutely fandabidozey, I dont usually like to see the MT in any different colour than green/camo, and defo dont like yellow!!!! But somehow it looks really really nice, Compliments to the chef.
I especially like the exhaust and the rear shox Top Job :mrgreen:

So whatever happened to Yellow Peril? I spent hours hunting through galleries here on the forum and then through whatever Stafford show pics I could find on the internet and never found this bike. I assume it must be finished by now?
