Hi all you FC types,
out of 900+ posts, this is my first post in the FC section, and i\'m here to pick your brains!

I\'m doing some graphics for someone with a turbo II (i think) and i need a nice straight side-on view of one. Does anybody have one or could point me in the right direction? I did a google search but there wasnt much of any use, ideally need a nice hi res one.

Anybody?

:):):)

Thats great grinder, do you know if that bump strip is on all FC\'s? i really dont know the difference between the models! Also any chance i could get the wheelbase measurement for reference? :)

Retrobate, be great if you could, you can never have too many reference photos.

Dents not as bad as I was expecting though, I\'ve seen so many with a dent in the exact same place, must be magnetic or something?

Yeh, well she\'s been doing a fair bit of flaming recently! :flamed

Yeh, the dent\'s not so bad, it\'s just the inconvenience and the lack of consideration from the person who caused it that really got me! :Grrr

Got a look of disbelief and nod of approval from a biker on two occasions now!
