My latest addition to my goose flock, and this one i'll actually be racing this Sunday at the RADBMX.CO.UK annual UK old school BMX event - MK09 cool.gif

I left the original head tube and down tube decals on even though they were a bit tatty but I also had some custom bits done to spice her up !

PARTS:
1982 supergoose frame & team forks (serial J2003415)
1983 un-stamped GT pro bars (with custom decals)
alloy pro-class rims with shimano hubs (and custom pro class decal)
NOS Rad Kaps Dice
NOS renthal layback
NOS viscount aero (custom decals)
NOS Dia Compe MX hinged seat clamp
SR Apex-M 3-piece crank (was blue with a few scrapes so I stripped & polished it wink.gif )
Sugino 44T (powdered white)
NOS Shimano SX
NOS FUAN F1 grips
NOS Dia Compe 901's (changed cables to white)
tuff pad copies
Forklifter style stem (possibly mongoose as it has similar markings to pro-class bars of the same era 85-86 ish and the freestyle geese of that era came with them - I rattle canned this white myself and added a custom mongoose decal)
mongoose stamped headset
NOS comp 3 pattern tyres thick/thin combo (7 stars brand :-\ )
NOS haro race plate (with custom decals)

So here she is ready to race :










But the story doesn't quite finish there...................... biggrin.gif

............looking at her I just had to try out some white tuffs and stick the front brake on - so here she is in "street" mode :




Finally, here are some detail shots of some of the custom decals :













Hope you like her guys.......... smile.gif

That is hot. I'm jealous. Good luck on the track. Let us know how she handles. Take pics of all the kids with strange faces when you try to explain what a gusset is.
