No we got growled at by AJ Turbo from Welly for bidding on HIS motor.
All the money has gone towards my (oops 'our') new F5.
Steve will have a revamped motor for the Delta. Which I got the blame for blowing up!Which I wasn't even riding at the time!
Cant wait for the next meeting in June.

Hi Steve and Ellen
Great to meet you guys today and talk buckets.
The Loncin/fxr is now proudly parked in the garage next to my daughters immaculate fxr, I warned her that she had best watch out because if Mum needed spare parts hers might become the doner bike. She was not impressed!!!. Im looking forward to getting out on the track asap and will catch up with you guys on the 14th
Cheers

Hi Steve, hi Ellen,
You mentioned upgrading the shock in your FXR last time I saw you. I should have paid more attention. I've had a closer look at my FXR shock and I've noticed 2 things: 1) it's really short, only 235mm and 2) it seems REALLY stiff, maybe around 20kg/mm. How much longer was your replacement shock than the original one? How did the stiffness of the replacement seem to compare to the original? Tim. PS ... looks like I'm going to hastings again. Woo hoo!!!

Strange your comments on your shock. The reason for the replacement on ours was there was no damping, It had leaked and was pretty much reliant on the spring only.
We got hold of a second hand shock, which was no better than our original, so no point on wasting more money there. I brought a pitbike shock which was 260mm, it was the shortest budget shock i could find of decent quality.
It fitted straight in. Raised the seat height ( a little more than I expected )
noticably lifted the rear end, which made you feel like you were leaning down and forward on the front end. Transformed the bike tho, handled really well after getting used to the change in riding position.
Not a bad option, the bike might be at the track next meeting you could take a look, before you decide
