I've been away from the forum for months so I thought I'd have a little look this arvo. I get a little touch of the warm fuzzies seeing that some things never change. The only thing that changes is the brand of bike and the reason for its sale. Dave can do whatever he wants with his bikes, the sky isn't going to fall in because he sold another keeper.
welcome back Firko  :). Good thing about Dave selling his keepers is that whoever buy them will get a good bike instead some "race ready" junk.

Thats right Mark, it just helps another new comer into the sport which it has, and it gets me closer to my goals, nice to see you back.

Serious question Dave. How do you make money out of VMX bikes? Aside from a boat I cannot imagine a bigger hole to flush your money down.

I have built half a dozen bikes and wouldn't get back a quarter of what I've spent if I sold them. Obviously restoring them to as new or better condition isn't the answer, so that's why I'm curious. How do you do it?
