You should stick a 50 in it but knowing you it will end up with a stinky 100cc foul stroke

I wont be sticking anything in the frame. Tried to ride the dam thing once a few years ago. I do not understand how people fold into them.

Just wondering if I should do anything with the engine or just flick off the whole lot.

But I am on the look out for a 100 foul stroke. A good one please.

From what i understand you don't fold into them. You ride it minimoto style legs bent out.

Well I be fucked.

Was doing a bit of research tonight, looking at some photos of YSR bits and pieces and something wasn't sitting right, so went out to the shed and had a harder look at the bike.

Brilliant, F5 is huge fun, you may however run into the too many classes problem I hit and have to give something away. At the GP sidecar, F5, F4 was doable because the chair GP was on Saturday, at a club day three classes just gets too hectic, could always find a ring in for F5 I'm sure there would be takers and we need to grow the class :)

Have managed to get everything completly wrong, bike is a TZM50. Dont know why I thought it was a YSR, probally becasue I am sure he never rode it in F5, always B grade and I just assumed it was an 80. Never really thought that hard about it I guess.

So the engine is a TZR50. Apart from the frame I havent found any differences.

The bike has been neglected a bit, (think he fell off and broke the stinger and muffler, then went out and bought an FXR) so at first I might just tidy the whole thing up in the TZM frame and make sure it runs. for me to be comfortable (or competative) I think I will need to put the engine in another frame.

Alternativly I could take up Yoga:lol:

Sweet, next F5 GP, you can do the triple header as well, weight difference between our engine should cancel out the weight differences between the riders.

Done. Just as well I have a year to build it, and the new sidecar.

A word of warning. Malcolm and I were the only two to collect the whole set this year (I think) and we were both too buggered to take our leathers off after the F4 GP. 70 laps on Sunday is quite a long way.

Point well taken. Fitness is high on the list this year. Still got another 10kg to lose as well.

You'll be joining Malcolm and I Friday and Saturday nights then to take care of the nutrition end of things.

Liquid diet? Didn't think that was limited to those two nights.

you did not do 70 laps race distance. Nathanael did 70 laps race distance, and I saw him lap you many times. add in the warm up laps and you may have done 70, and yes, he didn't do the sidecar GP, but he looked fine afterwards. oh to be young, fit, and talented huh :)
