Nice 1982 pretty much immaculate ultra burner belonging to my mate. May be up for sale at the right price I think.   Matt |

Phoar! That's a beauty, looks immaculate! If your mate is going to sell it i'd do it sooner rather than later, they're re-releasing the Raleigh Burner in a few months, might hurt potential sales!

Sweet.  If the New Burner is owt like the new Chopper was, the original will win, the attention to detail on the new Chopper was a bit cheap mass produced Taiwan bike style (not British heavy old clunker), great for whizzing about on for a laugh but not much for the hard core retro fiends like us, much like the new Mini and Beetle.  However i'll have a good look at the new Burners when they come out, if they are well specced they may be nice bikes! |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Any idea on price? I've placed a 'Wanted' thread in the for sale section The repro ones look pretty much the same quality as the originals from what I can tell - very tempted by the new Super Tuff Burner, but i'm not sure I can justify the £250 price tag, for what is essentially a bit of a whim for me  |

The new Burner is already out, very close to the original-much better than the Chopper IMHO. Got a customer who has one. Very nice Ultra though, don't see many with the gold as clean as that!

You are right, like anything with me when items become too overpriced or over sought I get turned off some. would still jump on a bargain sweet tricked out BMX or old skool escort though obviously, but i will be writing to Father Christmas regarding the exciting stock in Raleigh dealers! |
