    I want to gauge interest to this possible proposal

    Hi All,
    I have a 1988/89 Kawasaki ZX4 / ZXR400 that may get to see very little use this year.

    What I am proposing is to 'sponsor', to a degree, an up and coming rider with a ride in the VMCC winter series.

    Costs they will need to meet are entry fees, a set of tyres, fuel and possibly brake pads for the season as well as any breakages (need to figure details here). Basically running costs.

    The bike will come with tyre warmers, transponder etc.

    I have a couple of people in mind but there MUST be others out there that could be worthy of getting a ride in F3 or post classics. The bike is easily capable of 1:20's around Manfeild, probably a lot better with a decent rider.

    If you know of anyone wanting a deal like this get them to drop me an email with relevant details (experience, age, amount of bribe to accept them LOL) etc to wagener at inspire.net.nz

    It's a well sorted and reliable bike.



    I am a bit sad that I will not get to play on it much - money issues etc, so this is my next best option.

    Get those bribes coming in and we will see what we can do for some young talent.

    Cheers
    Warren Wagener.

    koba... Im gonna direct him to this thread tonight. He has now done 2 seasons of streetstock (came 2nd overall last year VMCC) and is very keen to get into F3 but his NC21 needs alot of work. That and I would like to see him "dissapear" from streetstock this year...

    Talking like that won't get you a ride!
    you should be telling them about your stopping and going abilities!

    How much would a good highside cost to fix on this bike?

    Cost to repair. Well that depends on what you break. Paint job wasn't cheap. I have got most spares for it so we could deal on that one if it happens. I have to say I will be looking for skills not crashers.

    Send a PM to Clive .... he can clear that question up for you .

    You may want to find someone to take a tasteful picture of it for class vetting purposes though
