A few tweeks here and there :cool:

I have tried to keep everything period (1997), i tried to source some 97 boxxer's (as mike king / steve peat) but as they werent available to the public i settled for the later first general sale edition 98.

only other non period bit is the d521 rear rim (199:cool:

Superb, jimihendrix has one of these and they're a joy to behold in the flesh. Top work fellah :cool:
 
Thank you, I own my dream bike, I should have had one of these back in the day but I spent all my money on car insurance! Oh the days of 1200 premiums...
 
Nicely done, looks very clean and 'stock'.

Bet that'll be a blast round Llandegla :xmas-big-grin:
 
nice :) blast from the past too. I remember riding chris porters LTS DH with mr.dirt forks & thought I was going to go over the bars when the forks compressed :LOL: funny how trail bikes are running this much travel now :)
 
awesome mate, i've just got a lesser 98 LTS DS 3000 and im busy working on that to get it going soon.

i cant wait to try it but yours is sweet!
