Not my bikes but
The owner comes to hams often and paeroa not to far anyway..
The GRC rep is a good one I built the engine and it's quick....
The 911 rep is alot faster then a D2 but is still tame enough not to scrar the shit outa ya this used to be my old bike...

Ive done 4 or 5 meetings on cheep aircooled bikes over the last 4 years . If they ever start racing in hamilton or even Tokoroa on a regular basis i will go water cooled.
Will hopefully be 4 of us with 4production and 2 pro-mod bikes at Tokoroa so that should keeep us bizzy enough (3 first timers ) :rolleyes:..
Anyone else runing these classes?
Im after some slicks aswell, cheep. Dont mind byin new ones but aint keen on buying 12. anyone with any old ones with life in them let me know.

Havnt really had a chance to ride it for a while

fixed the dripping fuel from the carb
fixed the broken handel bar

Clued the broken fairings
fitted nylon to the foot pegs

Brought an old Daytona for logan and have been fixing that up too

The Dark side :devil2:
My twin brother and a mate have brought buckets
They are trying to turn me to the dark side

I have said ..."lets see who goes to A & E first!"

I did try to get them on minimotos but they moaned about not being flexable enough.

Hey Grant I presume you're talking about your GRC rep.

I run mine at 30:1 and would be wary of running to much leaner especially if you are running at high revs for sustained periods like at the track.

Like most out of the box pocket bikes I think that the carb is set up a little rich, but hey better that way eh?

Hi Alan
Yes its My GRC
but It was hot and I was trying to start it

Just started it now in the garage (without douing anything)
so I may have just flooded it

Seems like a bit of oil dripping from the pipe though

My son Logan has his first rugby game tomorrow so we wont maske it there till just before 12
which is a bummer

should be good as it will be my brothers first time out on his bucket
so should be a laugh

Hi,im looking for a good second hand bike in the hamilton area.
ive got 3 standard d2s, but want somthing quicker.
Im also after some good second hand slicks (even china) ASAP.
I dont take racing seriously, but a bunch of us are gona start getting out there abit so im shopping for myself and a few mates.
ph 0272083177.

Ive got a virtually unused Chinese Pocket bike (been run once up the drive by the previous owner) that I will be putting up on Trademe after Queens Birthday. Wanted to try it myself but at close to Supeannuation Age the body hinges don't bend enough to let me ride it so I have never used it since I bought it. Its a Fila Ducati stickered jobbie in Red.

I'll start the TM bidding at $150 no reserve .

The first offer I get from a KB lister higher than $150 can have it and I'll throw in a spare unused frame.

Will try to post pix tonight but otherwise it'll have to wait until after I get back next Tuesday
