Hi all,
Thanks so much for the compliments. It means a lot to me that you all think so highly of my bike.
I'm really happy that this 'old thang' is actually a '95, yet it can still mix it with the new bikes! It was a lot of fun building it, and you'll all be happy to know that it's not a garage queen.... I really enjoy riding it - a lot. But I might have to look for a new project bike now. :-) Don't worry...this ones a keeper.
Cheers!
Sime
PS. Dlit....thanks especially for the 15,000 post dedication. :cheers:

warputer 03-19-2008, 11:01 PM Damn this thread is old ! :yikes:
nicolaycastro 05-29-2008, 09:21 AM Hottness!
Thanks guys!!
I ride the bike to work and back at least 2-3 days per week....so it really does get ridden.
As I do custom painting on the side, I was toying with the idea of changing the paint scheme to the 'HM Plant' racing team. What do you all think about that idea?
If not that color scheme, what else do you recommend? I do want to keep the wheels black however, so a Repsol scheme is outa the question (it's been done to death anyways).
Cheers,
Sime
nicolaycastro 05-30-2008, 09:07 AM Is this the one?
