I've gone and bought a kiddies balance bike for my 21month old boy (who loves daddy's VTR!). But, (after my mate offered to help(do)), I've decided to strip it and re-spray it the colours of my VTR! I've ordered some VTR decals at 1/3 size from a bloke in the US! I'll post a before and after! Griff. :P

Top job :thumbup:

Remember to fit a bit of 3x2 under rear shock to make it turn in faster :lol:
