    By the way i got some guy in boongate to hook me up a full set of stickers, its cost a bit more than usual as he had to do the artwork initially but the templates are all set up if anyone wants a set, im going to get him to do me the Dakar sticker.

    Re: The re- build

    Dean, what model is your @?, i'll be doing a strip and rebuild next autumn/winter. i've had my RD03 about 3 or 4 months, it looks very nice on top but the frame is starting to go in places so i'll strip it and repaint it and replace bits as i go.

    I'd be very interested in your strip/ rebuild especially if its an RD03.

    Good luck with it and i look forward to seeing the pics.

    Holla
