1983 Redline 600a

1983 Redline 600a Series III Survivor! .

All orig. except for the GT seat and repro Mach grips. Orig bars are intact, but not on the bike currently. Makes me wanna bust-out my old Quiet Riot tapes, and then jam some Van Halen, "Jump."

I rode it for a few weeks, but I sold it to finance a looptail Quadangle.

I've already caught heck from another member for selling-off a few of my Race Inc. and S.E. items.

Unfortunately, I can't keep them all, AND get new stuff!

I hated to part with this bad-boy, because it's IDENTICAL to my 1st true BMX'er! I still have my 1983 Polaroid of the original bike I had as a kid, before I ruined it. I was dumb back then, though, and knocked-off all the reflectors, removed the Made in Japan sticker, and eventually added all sorts of stupid freestyle crap to it.

The kid down the street always had a looptail Quad, and I was only the "second coolest" kid on my street.

Hey, I love the bike. I have the same except it is blue and I don't have the original stickers anymore cuz I raced it and would put new ones on each year from my sponser. Just wanted to throw a shout out cuz it brings back some good memories.

Seeing this bike and reading the post about Van Halen jump fits my younger days to a.... T.......this was my favorite bike of all time , I feel woozy at my stomach... like I just seen my x- girlfriend......I am 36 yrs old and have not thought about bmx in quite a while and the other day I saw a new BMX track on the way home from work and it inspired me to do a google search for this bike and I ended up here......thanks for bringing back memories and having such a cool forum.......I would love to own another one......I know 36 is old... but I still race moto x so why not wana ride BMX again! Is it possible to get one at a reasonable price ? My childhood just flashed in front of me! thanks
