Cheers Kev, i'll bear that in mind.

The idea of a classic appeals Spen! Is it something like this?

I know what would happen if i tried to build one, it would stay a pile of parts! Converting a road bike perhaps but building one from scratch, i've just got too many other things to be doing, i'd never get the time.

Spen, would you STOP bringing that up please :(

a mate of mine is selling a thundercat trackbike with all sorts of spares inc wheels for £1500
deffo worth the cash :alien:

I'd say you're on the right lines witha CBR 600 steelie. Loads around, bits easy to get hold of and not too dear.

You might stuggle with a budget of £1000, as for the reasons above CBR 600s are reasonably popular.

Good luck in yer search and watch out for the dogs!!

Ray.
