    Good practice, looking forward to the racing now.
    Would have been good to follow you once your tyres had some heat in them

    Thanks for explaining my slow riding with a legitimate racing reason.
    It's a pity my riding isn't much faster with heated tyres

    Gave up on the 2 stroke ideas and ended up with an FXR engine.

    CBR250 Mc19 Chassis
    FXR150 Engine, standard engine and carb seem fine (now) until I race someone with a fast one!
    Pirelli Slicks
    RS125 Tail piece

    Lets go racing!

    An FXR might not start off with as much HP as you think

    FZR150
    I have never seen or heard of an FZR125, a logical conclusion would be that the engine would be a Virago 125 (hopefully with-out the single carb, but certainly no biggy to change.)

    As has been said, a very heavy engine, and I have seen a few with broken valves from high mile road use.

    Go the old school route, and tune up a 125 Virago, stick some 17inch wheels and slicks, a crowd pleaser, guaranteed.

    Tassels for extra cred.

    That's because I said a FZR150 not a 125 which is a 150 V twin in a TZRish frame that Yamaha built for 3-4 years in Thailand or somewhere similar, might be a big XV125 motor as it is only a 2 valve

    Ahh yes. Another year I did not get my shit together to go over to the island. Next year.

    Surprising really, didnt have a single front end slide. Back was sliding on the way into corners but not exit

    That'd be because of you're brain failing to recognise the lack of slipper clutch.

    Fishy was coming at turn two harder than you were, and was all good.
