Yes, absolutely cracking job Tommy. Have you done most of the mods yourself? My tracker project has an FMX650 engine in it. Not finished or running yet but if I can getting looking as nice as yours I’ll be happy 👍
Cheers, Michael

Aye Tommy,

That is a testament to your skills and perseverence.

Hope you can have the op. sooner, rather than later and swing your leg over the beastie some time this year.

All the best, Bill
