That isn't guaranteed, if it is wet I can think of a couple of bucket riders that could cause a surprise or two.

yes in the wet, an expirienced rider can beat a less expirienced rider on a faster bike....
but after racing in streetstock in the hot dry weather, my cbr anyway cant keep up.
Ill be riding my kr at nzsbk at manfeild cant wait!!
that fast $5k bucket that was for sale on here with a good rider would beat a ss150....but then again its $2k more expensive than my kr and most rg's

No offence Max but you seem to have an obsession with the number of gears you have in the gear box. Sure the more yoiu have the more slection you have and the more chance of being in the right gear a the right time however (and this is especially true with 2 bangers) you can tune around this to a point (please anyone correct me if I am talking out a hole in my arse).
Now back to the subject at hand. As much as I would love to head down reality is the Easter trip will probally be my big trip South with the bucket this year and I dont think I can really afford to do both:bye:

5 speed gearbox's don't seem to hold the team ESE bikes back on a tight track like Mt Wellington.
As Pumba says, its not the number of gears but the way the power is arranged.

That's true......
It would be great to see a 2-Stroker bucket running at the front of the SS field on a longer track like Manfield, Taupo or Ruapuna.
the GP's that run at Mt Welly show that 20+rwhp can be done inexpensively and that could be enough to head off most SS's

I've raced an ailing 150 in with buckets and only two bikes got close, onw was faster for sure. They both broke. That was TRRS 2008.

As a matter of interest, what was your times? I saw a list of times published some where recently by RICK for SS and buckets at Taupo.
Our GP's at the moment have 20 rwhp, last year they were 16-18, what is the typical rwhp of a 150? I would love to know if we are getting close to the SS's
In 2008 I was getting 117kmh down the front and pretty much the same going up the hill at the back, and expect to better it this year, will you be riding SS or buckets this year?

A super good 150 may touch 30hp, but has probably been 'touched' slightly to get there. I'd assume 28/29.
They aren't a light chassis though.

but if we keep working at it we maybe good for Taupo 2010

all the ss150 bikes vary, your gp125 would with no doubt beat an air cooled rgv150 around taupo, manfeild ect, the fastest ss150's from what ive been told are the HONDA NSR150SP, KRR150 TZR150.....these bike are more modern and put out aobut 30Hp at the rear. And the kr150,rg150 and still close to that horse power. Please feel free to correct me if im wrong.
Anything is capable of beating a slow ss150 rider......for example, pretty much everyone {accept one or two buckets} bet a RG150 at PMCC round 1 by quite alot....even i beat him and my bike could rev up into 6th gear.

Bang on.
Average 26 - 28hp at the wheel. I would imagine the weight would be the main advantage of a bucket.
About 125kg for a RG150 with a bit of gas in it.
A well ridden quick enough bucket will beat a poorly-average ridden 150 (as proved in the past several times)
IMO you'd be needing to push a couple more HP to see a bucket take on a well ridden 150.

They use the same casting as a VJ21 (first model) RGV250 but clumsily bored at the bottom of the carb so only a hole of 28 (or is it 26?). Looks the same from the outside as the 32mm RGV250 carb. Does anyone see the scope to cheat here?
I beat a couple of RG150s in the all in race at Taupo RRS on my 50 which is pretty shocking really.

thats not that suprising......you guys are forgeting that ss150 is mostly a novice class......and some of you guys are expirienced riders that know how to race properly. Its not your bikes which are faster, its your riding that thats beating them. These riders arnt even touching the power of there bikes. Sorry for pointing out the obvious :baby:

Any guess of speed down the straight would be just that, a guess, BUT it would definatley be faster than 117, more like 130-140.
I hope to be riding a commuter FXR, if we sort its current glitch.
Timing was fairly suspect, I allegedly qualified with a 1:19 but my best race lap was a more realistic 1:26.
The bike had a massive crankcase leak into the gearbox so was running really quite flat until it built up enough pressure in the gearbox to pop the breather hose off and all over my rear tyre.

Alot of the time I read you spouting shit but I do agree with this post. - however there is no doubt in my mind that given equal riders there are buckets out there that will beat a SS150, I just think the 150's were being a little underestimated earlier.

Yep, measured one the other day, closer to 26 than 28.
I see there are plently of names i haven't heard off in the 150 class at the TRRS. Wouldn't be too surpised if a bunch of buckets beat some.
RG150's are a pretty clumsy bike all over anyway.
I haven't seen a 150 actually properly checked for legality issues, in the North Island, in the last 3 years i have been racing. Simply because there hasn't really been a epic fast 150 what has stood out.

That's a mighty claim.
The GP125s I saw out there were quick but not THAT quick.
At the BOB today Avalon placed second in the first race of the day. And was in second place again at the 40min mark in the BOB itself having lapped the rest of the field and would certainly have placed on the podium or even won had she not been let down by a broken engine mount.
The GP125 engine had the better of all the FXR's for speed, lapping them all and was the equal of the eventual winner on a highly modified CBR150.
The build cost of the Suzuki GP125 engine in Avalon's bike $500. Piston, rod kit modified RG250 pipe and a KX80 ignition.
Fast and good value for money these GP125's but still maybe not quick enough to head off the SS field yet.

rubbish did it, Avalon is an awesome rider which helped, but to say the gp125 engine had the better of all fxr's... PAH! its largely to do with weight, a rs frame etc versus a.... fxr150, it dont really take much to work out. :Pokey:

Wrote that before the official results were out.
And your not on your own.....there are plenty of others that think Avalon setting the second fastest lap time in the BOB is mostly due to her riding ability, and that's true, it is.
But a good 2-stroke engine helped and if the ESE people can get any more power from them then they will be something to take seriously.
Especially as GP125 engines are so cheap and reliable and it doesn't take much to wake them up.

Why not run a GP100 then and use a decent size carb? I'm sure the 100 will be faster, in fact hasnt your own testing shown the 100 to have more power?
Oh, and as for the SS150 racing, down here a CBR150 has won a SS150 on Ruapuna full circuit in the dry. Again having a super fast rider certainly helped too, but some of the top SS150 boys are still pretty quick.
Don't forget too, that scrutineering is to check the safety of the bike, not necessarily whether it is legal or not,

Well, I'm a likely starter on my bucket FXR150. We could have a good race Max.

Well, I'm a likely starter on my bucket FXR150. We could have a good race Max.Yep - I've just seen your entry (a little late for the programme sorry) and you are the only Bucket.
I'm betting you'll be the first Bucket home (unless some of the other pull their finger out by Tuesday... haha).
Congratulations on your win!

Hi Skunk. It sounded to me like there would be a few more buckets! I'm keen to try Manfield anyway. I've never been there. I like the full size race tracks. Are you racing a SS bike? Didn't Max say he would be racing his CBR125 bucket?

Didn't Max say he would be racing his CBR125 bucket?The entry shows Max in Streetstock on a KR150. I'm pit crewing for Sketchy in Sport Production so no time to race as well. "Minefeild is just three drag strips connected by bends..." - not sure who said it but quite true.
