Nice collection of Burners there.  My first BMX was a MK1 Ultra Burner, I worked hard all summer to buy it. What a great feeling it was to ride it home from the cycle shop. ;D Looked similar to the GS Burner at first glance but had better equipment fitted. Suntour stem, Sugino crank, Tioga chainwheel, Araya alloy rims etc. IIRC ;D |

That Pro Burner is like a time machine! Even if the Araya Aero rims are a bit new, it's made up for by the Holeshot sticker! Wasn't that Andy Ruffell's company? |

I'm working on a few ideas that this may be useful for. the wheels on the pro burner and all the bits on the mini night burner cost me £80 (they stripped polished an re-anno'ed for that price) call the guys at CCA- www.customcolouranodising.co.uk/ tell them you where put their way by stuey on the burner forum they are top blokes. That Pro Burner is like a time machine! Even if the Araya Aero rims are a bit new, it's made up for by the Holeshot sticker! Wasn't that Andy Ruffell's company? obviously a man who knows his bmx's, it should have araya 7X's on it which are now being re-finished, the plate has also now been signed by craig schofield (ex raleigh rider) |

I used to really covet the black/gold burner when I had my cheap unbranded BMX as a kid. One hell of a collection - do they get ridden?
