Wellington Buckets: 25th June 2006

[Sketchy_Racer]

Be there or be square!!!







Please make a point of turning up as it is getting very hard for the organisers to get access to tracks now.

We have Three dates confirmed for this year in the lower north island.

Even if you don't have a bike to race, talk nicely and you will more than likely be offered a ride during lunch time. (provided you have the required gear)

here is a map of the new track and the directions to get there.

[Ivan]

Track looks cool TF should be ready bar the exception of a pipe for it

[Wasp]

What time? I reckon an organised ride before/after :)

Either way I'll bowl on down there

[Coyote]

Fuck! In the council car parks?! Should be interesting. I'll be there

[Ivan]

Yeah my TF will be flat out down that straight hope the brakes on those TF chassis's are good

[Coyote]

Reckon I could take someones bucket for a quick test ride? :blip:

[Ivan]

Reckon I could take someones bucket for a quick test ride? :blip:


Maybe you can take myne depending on how it is running will be first proper ride on TF dont want to give you something that is going to kill you hahahahahahaha

I should have RG50 there to

[Skunk]

Reckon I could take someones bucket for a quick test ride? :blip:
Possibly...

[Sketchy_Racer]

Reckon I could take someones bucket for a quick test ride? :blip:
Take mine. Ill crash it, so it wont matter if you do too!! :nya:

Ohhhh AANNNNDDD I got WETs for my bucket now. Now i can kick arse in the wet and the dry heheheh

[Coyote]

Yay!

By the way, is there any classes the RG could join? Also do the motards have to have road tyres or can you have knobbies. My brother wants to ride his KX around if he could, and I've wanted to ride the montesa on tarmac for a while (if dad would let me)

[Sketchy_Racer]

Maybe you can take myne depending on how it is running will be first proper ride on TF dont want to give you something that is going to kill you hahahahahahaha

A motorcycle has to be working before it can kill you. Oh and the brakes are as you would expect on a 26year old bike. SHIT

[Sketchy_Racer]

Na the RG don't fit anywhere.

But im sure you will be able to run a Motard with anything. Ill ask bayden

[Ivan]

Hahahahahahahahahaha

It should be running I am getting the chassis soon cant wait am going to run RM80 electrics and use Stankos spare pipe for it for now instead of trying to design my own I will copy it for now its gonna be cool all the bearings and seals are sittingon the couch watching tv

[Bert]

sweet another reason for a long weekend in wellington......better get the blue beast going.

[Ivan]

Here is a pic of my bike

[Ivan]

sweet another reason for a long weekend in wellington......better get the blue beast going.


Yeah us TF guys are abit behind aye Bert!!

I cant wait to ride this thing aye Its going to go allright got any pics of your bike for us to view yet I cant seem to find any other than the censored one

[Coyote]

You keep on mentioning TF. Do you guys have TF125s?

I have a TF185. Maybe I could bucket that up (although it'll need a smaller engine won't it? Not that it matters, the one it has is seized)

[Sketchy_Racer]

Yes Ivan has just got a TF100 engine from me and a TS125 Frame from Stanko. He will keep ranting on about TF's untill he gets a 'NEW' bucket project.

[Sketchy_Racer]

sweet another reason for a long weekend in wellington......better get the blue beast going.

Yeah you better. Are you gonna ditch the electrics you have on there at the moment??


Hmmm come to think of it, You don't seem to have a very good relationship with bike's electrical parts do you??:nya:

[poorbastard]

Sweet I'll have to come for a look

[Sketchy_Racer]

Come with you leathers on PB,

Ill try get you a ride on my FXR if ya like....

[Skunk]

I can't see my KH going by then... I'll have a look at the 'track' and change the gearing to suit. :yawn:

[Sketchy_Racer]

i Dont know how big this place is. It don't look very big.

have you changed the footpegs on your AX100 yet??

[poorbastard]

Come with you leathers on PB,

Ill try get you a ride on my FXR if ya like....

Sweet I'll be riding there anyway

[Skunk]

Have you changed the footpegs on your AX100 yet?
Not since Manfeild... they were fold-ups then though.

[Sketchy_Racer]

They were a tad uncomfortable wern't they?? :killingme:

[Skunk]

Oh yeah... forgot about that. :wait: I'll get the welder out and fix it.

(That'll interupt the 'weight gain KH' project for a bit.)

[Coyote]

i Dont know how big this place is. It don't look very big.

I know the place. It's not very big

Should I bring my leathers? :innocent:

[Bert]

Yeah you better. Are you gonna ditch the electrics you have on there at the moment??


Hmmm come to think of it, You don't seem to have a very good relationship with bike's electrical parts do you??:nya:

hummm nope i don't, funny really considering i work with electrical systems every day, i guess it the same old story : builders have the worst houses, plummers have the most leaks.:shutup:

[Sketchy_Racer]

I know the place. It's not very big

Should I bring my leathers? :innocent:

Fo Shaw!! ...........

[Coyote]

Fo Shaw!! ...........
Skuuuuxx, I'll be there

[Sketchy_Racer]

Skuuuuxx......

Delux.....

[Wasp]

Heh sweet, ive figured im going to buy leathers instead of cordura soooo..... can i have a turn too? :innocent:

[Sketchy_Racer]

If theres time, of course...!

[Sketchy_Racer]

Leathers have to be zip together

[Ivan]

Yes Ivan has just got a TF100 engine from me and a TS125 Frame from Stanko. He will keep ranting on about TF's untill he gets a 'NEW' bucket project.


Hahaha

and youl still keep ranting on moaning lmao

Nah I put my bearings together in it its going to go good except I hit one problem I forgot to take a cover off a bearing where it has a oil lube so will get it out again and then add my gearbox chuck on top end get my electrics and throw it in the frame so it will go hard

Glenns only scared

[Sketchy_Racer]

oooooh im so afraid :tugger:

[Coyote]

oooooh im so afraid
Takes courage to admit that :bleh:

[Sketchy_Racer]

Wait im not finished,

Ooooooooh im so afraid that the stupid ginger will get in my way as i lap him :Pokey: :lol:

[Ivan]

Takes courage to admit that :bleh:


Yeah it does he is past stage 1 now he might come out the closet and admit he is gay :nya:


Nah most likely you can take the deadly TF for a blat

[Coyote]

The TF sounds awesome :2thumbsup


By the way RG, have you asked bayden about knobbies?

[Ivan]

The TF sounds awesome :2thumbsup


By the way RG, have you asked bayden about knobbies?


Well it aint going to be the best thing since buttered bread since its air cooled I will need to worry about how hot I get it and also we are talking a 20 year old chassis so ya get my drift but it will be a little more fun than the RG50 humming around in last,

I even have anidea for running a water cooled cylinder

[Sketchy_Racer]

Sorry alarumba, i aint talked to him yet. Ill go see if he is home tomorrow

oh and ivan, Water cooled.... YEAH RIGHT :killingme

[speedpro]

I even have anidea for running a water cooled cylinder

Just do the head, you get most of the benefit but not so much of the aggravation. Also you can ask anyone who has ever done it to confirm this, but the most difficult part of watercooling a bucket is sorting out the pump. On the TS based motor I did, which ran a sleeved down RGV250 cylinder and full crankcase reed conversion, I removed the oil injection pump and it's drive shaft, made a new shaft, and manufactured a waterpump that fitted into the space previously occupied by the oil pump. It took a few goes to get it so it circulated water properly and the seal that stopped water getting into the gearbox had to be replaced regularly. My old AC50 used the thermo-syphon principle to circulate water through the barrel and my new MB motor will use thermo-syphon as well but I've only done the head on that. We used an electric pump on our MB sidecar and that was by far the best idea for getting the water around. The sidecar had the head and barrel done but it was a rear engine wormy thing so needed to.

[ajturbo]

Here is a pic of my bike

i see you have a full tool kit.... including the hamer!!:blip:

[ajturbo]

sorry "Mud boy" (luke)and i will not be there...we are off dog racing.... but the next one...and the next....

[Sketchy_Racer]

Lol, you ol' bugger

Na the plastic shit aint required, but catch bottles etc are.

[Skunk]

Had a look at the 'track' today. One word - Tight.

[Sketchy_Racer]

[Ivan]

[Jamezo]

Alarumba and I shall be bowling up sometime. You'll know us when you see the righteous double-smoking action, or hear the syncronised ring-a-ding-dinging.

[Skunk]

Didn't see any of you - except RG, AJ and Ivan... You missed riding the AX100. Then it could have been you the throttle stuck open on :killingme

[Wasp]

TIME TO OPEN YOUR EYES I THINKS

[Skunk]

[Wasp]

no pics of us amazing spectators? :blip:

my plans for leathers are in full swing now, hopefully the fxr will hold together for me to have a go eh rg100?

[Sketchy_Racer]

hopefully...

I found out when i got home i lost nrealy a litre of oil to the catch bottle...

Mush have been from laying on its side twice .. :lol:

[Ivan]

Ahh, pic 2; the last of the Mohicans about to be scalped (lapped) for the 2nd or 3rd time in a 10 lap race.


Its me hahahaha

[Wasp]

ooh thats not good, have you had a look to see if its allright?

I was inspired to make a track drying thingy though.... i figure a 50cc motor creating heat and blowing it onto the track somehow and put it on a frame so its movable.

[ajturbo]

hell they a good photo's from ya phone!!!!

sorry i forgot to tell ya you could have had a go...
like forgetting the fuel can...
charging up the battery...
