[kiwifruit]

[bistard]

[The_Dover]

shit!!!!!!!! thats healthy!!!!

shoe horned a GSXR750 engine into it probably but left the 600 stickers on!

[placidfemme]

sounds great Shaun...

Just a random question... anyone know where (as in TV/Sky) it will be shown so I can watch it...

[bistard]

shoe horned a GSXR750 engine into it probably but left the 600 stickers on!

It would not be the first time that has been done
There was an Irish rider caught a few years ago witha FZR600 motor in his 400
Actually I remember the late great Robert Holden caught in Aussie racing a early GSXR1100 powered 750 in the 750 class
Of course Shaun is way beyond doing anything like that!!

[onearmedbandit]

Shite, that has got some go alright. Look forward to hearing about the race.

[merv]

Nice one, hope the handling is as sharp.

["D" FZ1]

That should be a bit of fun round the Isle :yes:

[riffer]

Go hard mate. Show them what a naki boy can do.

138 neddies out of a 600 is pretty mint. :Punk:

[Riff Raff]

Awesome stuff Shaun. Bet you can't wait to get over there now.

[Joni]

Yeah good luck matie...

Excitement and nerves mixed together can be an intoxicating formula.

I look forward to hearing how you go!
My thoughts will be with you and your grunty steed! :D

:woohoo: :clap:

[bugjuice]

pfft.. yeah, i got 37cc more, but come on.. mine does that.. i'll follow ya round :bleh:












severe p/t for those who think it ain't.

Go you guddun!!

[SimJen]

Good luck, ride safe.
Thats WSS type power, must be a good one :)
It'll be on Sky at some point, or just go to www.racing-underground.com and download a torrent. :) Awesome site.

[GIXser]

Mate thats some machine

however i must point out that you dont only require a fast bike...... ya need them "BIG Cahunnas"... and havin seen ya race before in the TT, ya surely got em,... do us proud dude

[Kornholio]

ya need them "BIG Cahunnas"... and havin seen ya race before in the TT, ya surely got em,...

Dont worry Eddie, yours may drop soon :D :sunny:

[spudchucka]

Best of luck to you.

[Phils Motorcycles]

How about scanning the dyno sheet and showing the rest of us mate.

[Maha]

Awesome Shaun....will be watching this with interest....

[kickingzebra]

want to bring back any parts off it for me? LOL
Thats awesome!! Have the best most fun ride you have ever had on that sucker!

[Ivan]

Good on you Shaun,


And do it for the red heads as they are trying to ban us from society.


On a serious side,

Good luck this year mate:yes:

[roogazza]

shoe horned a GSXR750 engine into it probably but left the 600 stickers on!

That , or used the WMCC dyno !!!??????? G.

[Coyote]

Just a random question... anyone know where (as in TV/Sky) it will be shown so I can watch it...
Prime are usually pretty good with coverage of motorcycle sports, and TV3 have had the TT around 1-3pm on Sundays a few weeks after the event for the last few years

Sounds awesome Shaun. Do you build up the bike here and ship it over or is one made up and waiting for you over there?

[Nicksta]

ooh... its getting exciting Shaun.....
man it would be cool to watch in the flesh.....
go hard dude!

[Manxman]

Go hard, be safe Shaun.

You have as good a chance as anyone there, just use the force...

See ya there!!

[Colapop]

Jeez I dunno... do ya think he'll be able to handle it...? There was this fella once... Oh never mind... I s'pose he's gotta have a go at some stage...

[White trash]

138? Pfft! How about I split ya the difference and we both win some races?

[GIXser]

138? Pfft! How about I split ya the difference and we both win some races?

mate youre yet to win one ok......

[Cleve]

All the best Shaun. I must have missed something earlier as I am still overseas on business but I thought you were on R6/R1's at the TT this year??

[Brian d marge]

And who could forget the good old RZ 350 engine into the RZ 250 frame for 250 proddie racing lol. And some were never caught :shutup: :dodge: .

[Shaun]

Thanks for the well wishes. The bike is a rocket ship, it has full Motec ignition etc on it, that is why it puts out so many ponies

It will be the fastest 600 I have ever raced, and am really looking forward to this now

[Squeak the Rat]

With all them ponies you'll need to get someone competent to look at the suspension. Bahahahaha (just kidding) - best of luck, sounds like a goodie.....

[DemonWolf]

Good luck and all the Best Shaun.

[Keystone19]

Looking forward to seeing/hearing/watching how you get on Shaun! It sounds like a weapon!

[ManDownUnder]

When is the race... any links etc?

What's the best way/place to keep an eye on things?

[riffer]

22 days 17 hours 46 minutes and counting...

[Sanx]

Good luck Shaun. I'll be watching with interest.

[MadDuck]

Best of luck Shaun I will be watching as much as they show on the tele.

Would loved to have gone to watch the racing but alas time off work was not possible.

[JayRacer37]

Thanks for the well wishes. The bike is a rocket ship, it has full Motec ignition etc on it

So you only need the NZ illigal ignition to make them gix 6'es quick eh?? Dont tell Craig and Stroudy tho......:D
Awesome, sounds like you'll be having bundles of fun there....Go hard, stay safe. best of luck from Dad and I.

[Two Smoker]

[sAsLEX]

To plough his field I think.

[sidecar bob]

And who could forget the good old RZ 350 engine into the RZ 250 frame for 250 proddie racing lol. And some were never caught :shutup: :dodge: .

So really a lot of these guys were not very talented riders, just talented cheats then?

[Ivan]

It sucks aye.

People having to cheat to win

[blacksheep]

[Steve_R6R]

Enjoy!!!!:niceone:

[codgyoleracer]

Matbe one click more on the steering damper then ?, good luck Shaun may the weather gods be with you.

[Shaun]

It is now 138.7 RWHP, my mechanice has been playing with it a bit, he found that on the Dyno, it had a massive hole in the fuelling at around 10000RPM, So he got to thinking, and ended up manufacturing his own Inlet rubbers for the Fuel injection, clever little man really

[Mental Trousers]

Wish that clever little man was a mate of mine!!

[Shaun]

Wish that clever little man was a mate of mine!!

haha, I am sure you do. Kevin Stevens is his name, he is by far the best mechanic I have ever worked with

He can fix anything

Bring this guy back to NZ so I can meet him he sounds onto it

[Shaun]

mmmmm. he also builds 125cc GP Honda's His125, still has the fastest srieght line speed recorded at the Nth West 200 for a 125, from a few years ago

We used some of his tuning info, to get Dom Jone's 125 faster against Midge Smart out here a few years back, when His dad Peter, had finished doing the work, Dom could get into the slip stream of Midge, prior to the work being done, Midge would just bugger off

[jonbuoy]

Good luck - not that you'll be needing it.

[emaN]

dude,sooooo looking forward to seeing ya race in a couple weeks time!
can't wait to hear ya coming, watch ya flash past and listen to the bike screamin' off into the distance!

bring on the 26th!

[Leong]

Good Luck and have fun Shaun!! Will be following your progress with interest!

Can't wait to watch how it goes...two weeks & counting

No more of those freakin' Start Line wheel stands tho'...:Punk:

[BarryG]

All the best, Shaun. I'll be watching IOMTT.com for updates.
On ya, mate.

Cheers

Hmmmmmmm you recon you can still get that info?

[oyster]

Kev Stevens secret pretty simple really. Get a good bike like a 2001 RS125. Don't dick around with it, but put a huge effort into making it as good as the maker intended it. No fancy ignitions, kit gear blah blah. Simple eh. Kev's bike did 238km/hr at NW 200. Lap records still stand for Steve Ward and his STANDARD 1995 RS 125 in NZ. Steve too, is a fanatic for making the bike perfect, as the manufacturer intended.

YUP
A well fettled stocker is leaps ahead of a weapon, with hi figures, but an incy little power band. or one that won't run for more than ten laps....

[Ivan]

Sweet as guys,

Jay had the bike flying well against midge

[gsp0702]

All the best for the TT, hope all goes well and i am looking forward to watching you tear past, just need to decide where on the course. Me and my Lad will be cheering you on.
