Hmmm... pale blue pinched from the old FBM 'Angel of Death' frames. I got my local powder coat place to match it from a photo! Every time I think about changing it, I see how it nice it looks!

You could check on their site, and see if there's one close to it on the custom option... extra $75.00 though...

My first "real" bike was a '97 S&M Dirtbike with a 1" HT... I miss that bike. You sir, make me very jealous. Please post more photos, please!

Very cool.  How did you get the new 1 1/8" stem  to fit on the old 1" race forks?  Anyone remember the "Freestyle Dirt Bike" that came out around 1991 or so?  It had a standing platform and 990 mounts and double thick drops.  They only made a few of them, the Heavy as f*ck was released later in 1992 and replaced it.
