Hi All

Here's a few pics of a recent $650 purchase with a few changes:

- Crud claw and Bullet Bros chain tensioner left-off for now
- Crazy bar-ends removed
- Saddle and grips exchanged
- Stickers removed to expose some (cosmetic) damage

Frame number is 320.

Planned changes are to pop on a Bontrager straight-blade fork, find a nicer XT post + Turbo and fit some bar plugs...

]


Like the changes. Plus the planned changes 8) 8) Will watch with interest

$650= £300 approx so a good price

Thanks sinnerman - I may well enter it sometime in the future, once a few changes are made.

Sorry for the trouble with the pics T! Your advice is much appreciated. Yes it was USA only; shipment to me was in two steps.
