    Almost done. Waiting on guard which should arrive tomorrow and Front axel sliders from the UK whick should come next week. It really nice in the handle bar seat and peg position now compaired to the xbars and lower seat. I can get down low and weight forward.

    After next round carby and airbox.

    New muffler seems quieter and I can push start it from cold now. It maybe the new rear shock is giving me more traction when starting. Im not sure if the muffler mods could help with starting or not but it seems to run better.

    I put a set of new bt39s on it. They have only done the last meeting. Ill run those until summer or maybe longer as they seem to grip ok at 20pounds and heat up fast even when it was cold.
    I would doubt if i have alot of power with this motor so ill maybe 2t it at some point or fxr150. Its a bit slow up the hill and across the top straight. maybe a good carb will help as I think its got a 24mm xl125 carb(guess only).

    I got a letter from IRD yesterday for my 40th birthday and it seems that they want to give me 950bucks so i think I will need a 28mm flatslide and 1/4 turn throttle. Not to sure about tuning carbs if anyone in Welly wants to earn some beers to help set it up would be good.

    Depends on what carb you are talking about. I would go to a 30. Unless you are talking a 28 FCR.

    And 32s, why be a pussy?, see if he can get a 46 in.

    What an eclectic mix of products he sells.

    Nice. I dont think I could have handled a GT engine anyway. I only want to look cool while going slow.
