1983 SE Racing P.K. Ripper
1983 PK RIPPER LOOPTAIL
This is my original childhood bike, my best build as a kid. Had it all these years and found it in my old garage. This got HCBMX started and fast forward almost a year, the addiction is still on. Cleaned it up, added some nos parts, almost complete. Favorite part, 52 tooth sprocket on Redline Flights.

The original Araya rims had the flip flop hub, still gottem', but not in rider form anymore, they suffered the most over the years.
16 T and a 12 T. Combine the 52 with the 12, not the fastest out of the gate, but once in motion, CYA!
Gonna try some pics here:
This is all original right out of the time machine circa 1983:

First stab at the restore, before getting into this site, had NO IDEA what was in store:

With much persistence from Falcos to clean this puppy up, what's posted is the "Final" result, but as we all know, it ain't never done!
Thanks for the comments!!

A pocket of allen keys, and vice grips clamped on the post, what else you need? 
Get a flat, you're walkin'''
