I wanted to do a build a little bit different so I found a 93 RM250 and decided to make 2 bikes out of 1. Sort of..

Seriously nice. That Swink RM was one of my dream bikes growing up. One of my all time favorite looking bikes. Cant wait to see more of this build.

Sorry Manbear for the drift. That cabinet is priced at $3999.00 plus $500 for flat shipping. Would you buy it again or build your own from a Harbor Freight dry media box? Can you get a rim inside it?
