Cheers..You know what.. I thought about that this morning. I've got those black skyways still on the turquoise burner. It'll have new tyres regardless. The gold wienham wheels will certainly come off for the clean. I may as well put the skyways on just to see what it looks like
Thanks for watching and your compliment. Sounds like you've got some cracking little bikes. This one's getting a gentle tidy up and clean.. I love the originality. Video coming in about 4 or 5 days.. these dark evenings don't help with filming
Thanks Rick... I love it, some sound advice. It so needs saving. If it was "battered" I would break it up but that gold lacquer is mint, they usually peel on the frame. Nice to see this exceptional survivor. I'll do it justice and save this little beauty and tidy it up
@dealermike1331 Great stuff mike, yeah,them 50mm drill brush bits are great, i would do the pedals,seat stem and all the nuts and bolts etc,and the pedals would come up well also, i would dab a little oil on all the parts after using the brush to stop rusting, looking forward to this one mike👍
@@rick79991I'll think I'll keep the original grease on the bearings.. they could be done, but if it rides well they why disturb the history I guess !!. 100%, some serious de rusting on the cards with the wire brushes but it's going to come up lovely. I feel it's being saved just in time
eBay on auction. I put a cheeky offer in and it was accepted.. happy bunny, cheap as chips, I'm selling on the red and black Dottie's to recuperate a percentage of the purchase price.. nice to see one with all the gold lacquer
Cheers.. I grew up with burners, better BMX's on the market from that era but burners are where my heart is.. it's so nice to find a tidy super burner 😊
They had like a hold lacquer or film.. many were peeled off back in the day. This one's staying though, just needs a really good clean. Cheers for the comment
Great bike rode one back in the day
Thank you 👍. They are memories.. they're also pretty cool which helps 😊

Nice video. I have a GT Pro Performer and a PK Ripper in the garage and in need of some gentle restoration and came here looking for tips.

Cracking find mike, 50mm wire drill brush bits on them pedels etc will get most of that rust of and leave a nice patina👍

@dealermike1331 I've just found the sold listing and seen the price, now I'm even more jealous. 😁
Ayy... Don't reveal my dealings, they'll all be jumping in the same boat 🚢!!😯
@dealermike1331 I need to start looking on eBay more but then I'd probably be bidding against you. 🤣
Hey Mike good find but not my thing but will make good content cheers 🥂
