WOW!! Belgium...that's a long way off...
Welcome to the forum, from Illinois, US!!!! You'll be able to get plenty of help over here, as there are many, many people that know these trucks inside and out. That frame looks great by the way!! Regards TJ

Willem, Beautiful motor and nice touch, leaving it in the front room for one year! No better place to admire it. I once had six race bikes in my front room...very cool place to sit and drink beer! Prost! I spent some time in Belgium and really enjoyed the country. I am pleased to see some of you are into something more than lace and waffles...LOL! You have some wicked beer in that country too. Welcome to the board from Seattle, WA and keep posting those pictures. Check out the parts board too if you need anything during reassembly...I've got lots of parts for just the cost of shipping. Best Regards

Hey, another greeting from West Virginia. I don't know much about these trucks yet, but the guys on this board are a wealth of info. Nice frame. Wife was walkin through the room and said you'd have to put a board over the motor and make her a coffee table if it was goin to stay. Good luck and welcome.
