More incentive to drag your sorry arse back over here sooner before they start puting H's in Whellington or Ahuckland.

Put the engine in a suitable frame or graft on suitable suspension and wheels and race it.

Worry about the rest later.

Should be able to get my hands on a CBR250 frame to put it in so should be quite nice if i get it

Are you an engineer, or can you access aluminium welding, milling machines , lathes, etc if not just stick to the stock engine. As always the pool water is colder than you think

That's quite some optimism, haven't you read the rest of this thread?

The 125 has the 6 speed gbox, not the 100. Like the TS, weird that the japs thought the 100s didn't need them, or more likely a cost cutting measure.

Dammit must have misread. Oh well.
