This is the perfect bike to start your racing career on, it has everything plus more that you will ever need for F3 and post classics!!!


This bike was imported from Japan as a race bike and used by Kevin Ward of Dynotech (bike tuners in Wellington).

Got 4th overall in the Vic Club Series (2000). Had a four year break , Then got valve seats cut and new rings. 2005 it qualified 8th (second row) out of FORTYFIVE formula 3 bikes!

It has recently had a complete brake overhaul; new fluid and caliper piston seals, newer master cylinder for rear, newer calipers for front, R1 reservoir and master cylinder for front.


Has a tonne of mods as follows

* Moriwaki Can (Sounds like a beast)
* Moriwaki Racing rear sets
* Moriwaki engine breather can
* Racing Cams
* Lightened custom rear sub-frame
* Braided front brake lines
* Front racing stand
* Rear racing stand
* Second Fiberglass tank with quick release fuel line (Saves nearly 2 kilos)
* Currently has Bridgestone slicks
* Second set of rims complete with Battle ax wets
* Spare Clutch Leaver
* 13T and 14T front sprockets
* Clutch cable
* Throttle cable
* Water pump with hoses
* Radiator hose
* 39T alloy rear sprocket and carrier (lower gearing slightly from current 38T)
* Tappet cover
* Bag of brake pieces (includes brand new genuine Honda seals for rear caliper - fronts already done)
* Tappet gasket (these are pinched easily when valve clearances are done).
* 520 Chain Conversion
* Total Loss Starter System
* Almost new Iridium Sparkies

The weather is looking good for this weekend for Puke, so Cibby will have the CBR there and I will have my VFR out for the first time. Your more then welcome to take my VFR out for a blast mate. The can DSS made for it sounds magic.

Mate thanks for the offer--truth is ive been pretty darn crook lately
Came to a head sunday when the ex missus found me KO'd in my hallway.
She thought I was dead--then dead drunk --once she'd realised it was neither she started to panic

yeah finally, sounds like a V4 should, super loud. It will be the first run its had since the engine work so hopefully it should run sweet, but thats what test days are for. Tuning.

there is nothing wrong with the CBR, I was refering to the work i had done on my VFR. Was just some carb work and tuning and stuff.

nothing special yet, just need the carbs rebuilding and some tuning and a couple of other things, still not right though. Just to be plain, I am talking about my VFR, not the CBR that is for sale.
