1/2 decent f4 bike wanted

**cotswold** · 8th March 2011, 10:19

Can any one help me find a 1/2 decent f4 bike that is ready for A grade (apparently I'm not allowed in the B's any longer)
Presently testing the patience and good will of John Steer by riding his bike and would like to find a bike as soon as possible.
Not too concerned what make or if it's a diesel or a smokie but would like it race ready and reasonably competitive,
Ps thanks to all the people that made NIC Taumaranui such a great weekend (despite the weather)

Are you one of those 'is my glass half full' or 'who can I get to buy me another drink' kind of guy?

B grade !! Thats your new name ...1/2 decent will be just fine as a quick bike will take you to the front of A grade and we would have to change your new name !

If you want an FXR it will probably be faster to keep an eye out for a realistically priced one and do the conversion yourself.
If you are bike agnostic the Janes have three CB twins to choose from that seem to go alright.

If you need more power from these have a chat to John Conner.

Wondering if the reason you're testing his patience riding his bike is because you bet him on the weekend??? (along with most of the A grade, never mind the B grade).

I reckon something with skateboard wheels could be the goer, you might be allowed to stay in the b grade then.

Better to be 1/2 fd than never to have been fd at all
