    I had the black and red Night Burner, which I loved....and was stolen from outside my house, I remember being devastated at the time, such a cool bike.

    Do you know anyone with burners that may sell them? it would be nice to organise an official Irish burner meet.

    Did not own a burner but owned a BMX Mustang
    that came with Blue velcrose padding on the cross bar and handle bars. I remmeber the saddle being awesome, and the hadle grips being pure wide.

    My White and blue burner just got a partial restore, new tyres, rims were completely re polished, new chain, hand grips, stone chips fixed.. My friend who works in a bike store gone it all for me. Cycled it down to the shops today for the first time since probably 1991'. Handles alright aswell :p. Locked it outside the shop with a big F off chain around a railing:D
    Must get a picture up of it!

    Only there a few months ago my mother had the thing in a skip, just aswell I noticed it and yanked it back out...
