That's a monstrously huge engine for such a sloooow bike( impressive work so far jim)

[james pithouse]

hi guy's I quit on this bike now just snapped suspension

[monica]

very nice start to this James,looking good

Shame about the suspension unit. I was following this build with interest and enjoying watching it come together. Could you get another unit? Would be a pity not to finish it after all the work you've done.

[james pithouse]

looks like, i'll have to get another kit just for one part really, as tamiya do not sell one part on it's own as it is not worth it, so that's why they sell as kit parts which I do not need. Where other companies send only the part you need and not the whole section of one area. airfix send only the part you need for free not the rest, revell same as airfix why not tamiya. as we buy tamiya kits from ie ebay, amazon, scale model shop, high street model shops exctra.
