Can you indicate if you are entering an F5 bike as I'm a tight ass and will only get my license if the numbers stack up.

That would be a NO from me.

If the running is threatened by lack of numbers I'll try and shake something up, getting the licence anyway...

Don't forget about the $50 special upgrade licence. I believe they are getting this sorted. Can anyone confirm?


If it ain't smokin' - it's broken.

8th & GP on 9th Tokoroa in another thread.


So that's you a yes then?


I'm, in of course. Darrin probably, DaveD always. But there are probably others that don't frequent this forum.


But yes lets push to get the numbers up. 6 weeks is enough to get a bit done.

Worked on the RG today
Rebuilt the new front brake caliper. Now it works and doesn't drag when you release the lever.
Welded the gear lever and made a new adjuster rod.
Replaced the well used bits of plastic.
Put all the levers back where I like them.
Put air in the tires , oiled the chain, mixed some fuel and put it in the tank.
I pushed it up the hill 3 times and the F*^@#er wont start :angry:
Off to see TZ and the ESE dyno next week to see if they can get it to go.

Its got a small rotor and an ignitech. Needed the twin curve ignitech to run the NOS. I got a guy that owed me a few favors to machine the the taper as I was to busy. He got it very slightly wrong. Did not realize as I gave it to my nephew to ride and did not pick it up
