Fresh from the garage, is my honda RS125 that is doing a great job at being a kawasaki.

I was gonna paint the wheels black, but the white isnt as bad as i thought it was going to be. whatta you think?

Anyway, if you see me at a race meet (#47) come and say hi, im a friendly person ;)

See ya's at the nationals at minefeild next weekend

Cheers guys!! Lovin it!

Paint cost $270 for base green, thiners, primer, 4l if clear, and 1l hardner.

It was fairly time consuming, as i had to repair my crash damage, but nothing exccessive.

The hardest part was that i had to clean up the garage, and get it spotless.... that took most the time...

Skunk, this is the new kawasaki green, and your just jealous. You know it

Cheers peoples,

Looks even better on the track RG.
Well done on your last race of the day 5th was it? wicked step up from the earlier races. you look really sharp out there. bike looked alittle under powered compaired to 1 to 3. but you sure were heading out of the corners a lot faster than the guys around you.... esp dunlop.:rockon:

So look out all you 125er we might has something special in the making... 07/08 number 1 ?????:Punk:

Rock on, catch you (be lapped by you anyway) in the winter series.

Bert is back?

yep came out for the day, i came down and talked to your old man on sunday after your first race.
currently settling back into things at the moment i can even scratch my own ass now. body is feeling much better.

as for the bike, it is all striped down. a couple of shitty rings and valve seats to sort, but should be go for the winter series. new GPRs and i might even wash the mud of it from the september meeting.

well done to all the KBers on the weekend, what a great racing display. --if any one ever says bike racing is a dying sport maybe they should make an effort to go to any of the national meeting... very very good racing. well done boys and girls.:rockon:

vtec,rg, ivan and RR catch you all soon
