Hey,

Have you considered Bucket racing?

There are a lot of Honda's available, such as MB50/MB100 and CB125T that are perfect for Bucket racing.

Cheap too.

Well,

I race the CBR250RR in Streetstock, and I love the bike. Managed repeated 1.15's on Puke on it. It's definitely got a 1.14 in it.

Another probably cheaper but less competitive option is the Honda VFR400's or CBR400's. I LOVE VFR400's, but have never owned one, so this is just from the perspective of the outside looking in. From what I've heard the VFR400's are great bikes, and they are definitely the best looking 400 out there, and they have the best torque curve of the 400's.

Another option might be to get a CBR600RR race bike that's already set up. Although if you are just starting, I reckon at least 1 season of some other kind of racing would do you bloody good before going to F2 or F1.

Go the VFR.

you can buy cbr600 ( 2000/01 ) models here ( japan ) for as low as 150 000 yen plus shipping back to nz, all set up ready to go.. Towards the end of the season there are some bargains to be had !
