Very nice. I had a 87 Haro sport in that same color too.

sweet sport! I had an 85' new and traded it for a skateboard BITD. I wish I wasn't so stupid.

The idea to make a Ron replica + doing it this well = masterpiece. Great bike and thanks for showing it off. Ron is my favorite.

He is mine too! Thanks for the compliment. He's a cool guy to boot. Thanks again.

StevenFS98 · 2009-05-30 6:39pm

Yes he is. I've met him several times and am driving out to Rockford to see him again. Can't wait!

They are D/C cables. Unfortunately they are dated 87.

WOW!!! That's one of the coolest bikes I've found on here. I love it.

xtremevert · 2009-08-30 4:42pm

so is that a DK stem? Looks cool. i like it.

ghostrider · 2009-08-30 5:01pm

isn't it an 86? or did you chrome an 85? btw - i did this with my 86 Sport BITD...if you go to "my bikes" my teal mags are now on my Invert.

Wilkerson had a version with magenta mags and bars...it was awesome. have pictures of that bike from when him and Paul Delerio (sp) and Spike Jonze put a freestyle clinic on at McQuaid HS here in Rochester.

Yes RW was notorious for using the DK stem. The bike was built almost exactly to the one R Dub used to ride (need grey over black uni's)down to the single peg and zip ties!. In the pic it was built from, he is doing a bar stand on the beach which i had him sign after I laminated it. I actually scored a pair of his tour leather's that were auto'ed and have a faded marker "R" on the tag. The real deal-verified by the man himself as to the authenticity as being his actual leathers! You might have guessed by now I am a Haro and RW fan. Anyway thanks and enjoy.
