Just got this, got impatient building the other one.
Bloke i got it off of a bit vague with history, does any one remember it, have any photos or info on builder.
Only found 1 poor quality photo on the net.... :(
Told it was Custom AI themed when built

If it's the AI chopper then it was built by Carl Hissey of PoolDam SC - the builder of Splinter, Bullet, Torment and several other very trick scooters.

It's in Scootering Issue No: 203 May 2003
the one with the National Supertune SX on the cover

Don't go bad, just having a few teething troubles (see carb forum) think its probaly partly due to it not being ridden for a while... :?

Know the feeling... :lol: loads of us went for a ride out last week, my tax disc holder flew off, nearly decapitating the bloke riding behind.. :o throttle grip was next followed by rear light, number plate and bracket..exhaust then joined in the party by rattling off and only staying on by manifold spring, then it broke down all together.. :biggrin:
Just glad ive got a transit van........
