Finally the stuff I have now. Mostly SE stuff.

The white PK frame is the complete in the 2nd pic. Just building it up. Teddy, don't you like the Gold on that PK. I think it looks killer in the sunlight! I also like the camo pads on it, I want to put the Brown/blue ones on my OM when I'm done with it.

1st pic is 2009, 2010 and 2011 PK retros.

This is the next one that I'm going to build up. It's another color that looks *blammo* in the sunlight. Eye popper. My 24" quad.
http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t37 … G_0015.jpg

And finally the one that I'm beating on now and trying to get back in shape. my 2011 OM. I want to swap out a bunch of the parts for blue. I like the look of this one: http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/se_racing/33189 but the only thing I've managed to swap so far is the stem, it's a blue "Ruf-Neck" retro from Knight Bikes.

I think macr0w said something about having some old school 26" rims? Araya's or pro class or something? Do you still have those Mark?

http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t37 … G_0013.jpg

I sold my gold 2010 Earlier this year to fund my GHP build, but I still have the 08. I miss it because it was a cool conversation piece, but I hated the way it rode. Nice collection of Retros you have going there. cool

What did you dislike about it? I haven't ridden this one much yet. I've been to infatuated with the OM. How did the 2010 differ from your 08?

It had a lot of flex. It just felt loose. The 08 I built more for trails, and was beefy therefore it felt more rigid, though I have only ridden that one about 100' total.

Eventually the nostalgia cycles will be so close together that people will not be able to take a step without being nostalgic for the one they just took.

Re: North Carolina Riders

I need to get a brain bucket so I can come out and play. That looks like too much fun.

Re: North Carolina Riders

Dude, That Race Inc is my favorite bike probably of all bikes. cool

It just got blown out at the bike show by a stock MotoMag. hmm

I got mad at the mods and deleted all my bikes after they banned me. lol

Every time I think about loading them back up on here they do something else that keeps me away. sad

Let me know what you want... I've got 26" Ukais, Sumos, Arayas, and a set of pro class, both on and off the hub. Most sets are silver, one set of 82 dated Gold HF sunshine / Gold Ukai.  PM me with what you're looking for.
