:clap:After a week of amateur vetting in my M*A*S*H-like surgery, the race-mule is back on it's feet/wheels. I have just completed a testing program up and down my cul de sac and can confirm an absence of oil or fluid leaks, blinding acceleration, and that the first 3 gears are working. My neighbours were so stoked 3 of them came out to observe from the footpath:angry2:. The lack of applause was somewhat disappointing so I decided to cut the program short.:innocent:
Round 6 here I come:woohoo:
Could someone please bring a shotgun in case the mule breaks a leg?

Much thanks to Chris from Queen St Motorcycles who sold me the replacement engine and the SMC ninjas who delivered the bits to Palmy.

This is the weapon that now hides a fire-breathing, turbo'ed, nos-drinking demon?

Hehehe. Not likely mate. I think I will pull a plug to give the other 400s a chance.
