    i dont mind any comments they are all welcome, its good to get different view's n ideas from other husky nuts !

    Anyway its been built to use in modern time card enduro's etc....probably the last time it will be shiny & straight !
    i can make it look pretty again when im too old or battered to ride any more ;)

    the problem is brakes on new bikes have us all spoiled unless you've never rode a new bike
