unfortunatly it still needs a neck brace, brakes, oil (in forks)...

but the heart is beating.... and that should make all you FXR150 boys/girls have sleepless nights.......

unfortunatly 1 of the CHCH buckets has withdrawn which means the reserve moves into the feild, & as yet no other reserves entered, & i am sure there will be other buckets pull out yet, so still a chance of riding in GP if you get in fast

have just had both bikes at the dyno yesterday

the gp is way cool and 18-19 hp (didn't have to do anything to it )

now the rg50 was a different story (but I new that thats why I was there)
the bike had gone realy well at the last gp was running around in 3rd place
till the electrics decided to part company with the crank

managed to dribble home in 5th with it missing everywhere

fixed that problem only to find that the crank was a bit wobbly

(and not a wobbly design)
so stripped the engine and replaced the crank bearings Thanks E.S.E
and TZ350 for rebuilding it
got it running again and it was LEAN as ??????
changed the jet and it ran better but not good
retarded the ignition to try and fix it
the thing was just not happy ( arranged to go see JC)

the story ends with twice the HP it started with and one very HAPPY rider

now I'm off to see Avalon and get some lessons on how to throw both bikes around the track

rumor has it that she is now doing rider coaching for a small fee

I hope so but there is an off season isn't there ?????

otherwise that $25 lesson may become a bit steep

hi everone, entries close for theTRRS this weekend, F4 has 45 after a few have had to pull out over the months, f5 has 11. the race meeting is sitting at 211 bikes plus 31 for the endurance race so looking pretty good so far inc 15 overseas riders. Chris
