Joey Dunlop and Colin Edwards fan, i want both replica bikes at some stage, just bought a Firstorm for a project but i love it and dont think it needs too much done, its got its own charm.

There's always projects of some sort going on here. Should provide enough inspiration if you're running short!

Hi and welcome.......must be my eyes but it almost looked like a proper one.... Yellow!!!!
It was destined to be - but turned out albino .
I don't mind it though. Always good to see different interpretations.
What’s the thing about yellow?
Don't ask. It will take up 7 pages of responses from those who think it's the fastest bike and the most popular.
But like most things 'yellow' they're ancient and forgotten. Just think of the songs: 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'round the Old Oak Tree'; 'Mellow Yellow' and even Coldplay's iconic 'Yellow'. All great in their own time, but fade away with age.
Red and Black though, the staple of society: Red Sauce, Roses are Red, Black Pudding, right up to the current 'Black Lives Matter' movement. So your question is answered: yellow is lost in time.

Red and black are my county colours so there is that.
Joey was f*#king awesome. I was lucky enough to grow up with road racing practically on my doorstep and witnessed many if his battles. I remember one Tandragee 100 where he was in the grass near enough when overtaking someone on the straight at the start grid after Bells corner. Stones and dust flying up and everyone going mad waving programs and cheering.
