853 rock lobster build first ride impressions

[painter09]

Looking good, just seen the pic of the old colour, was this the Rl frame for sale at sleepless in the saddle a few years back? If I had the cash I would have bought it but I found the bargain bucket first and stocked up on flite saddles!

Like the Orange ufo as well, never seen one before.

thanks not sure if it had been advertised any were before, I originaly picked it up through another bike sale on ebay on a buy one get one free type deal, then passed it to another member and then back to me it came, just wanted to see how well of a build I could turn its sorry looking state into, the ufo does seem to be a pretty rare bike nowadays but ive seen one other on ebay in the past and a forum member on a face book site as informed me he as a frame with a crack in it laying about the shed, shame really with there not being so many about,
