    The old man gets a favour for once, a bit of CNC bling for an old Rover motorcycle.

    Yeah, saw it come up. Was very tempted. If only I had the spare $'s
    Sometimes you wish it was easier, but if it was, everyone else would do it, then you remember you don't want to be like everybody else!

    Finally some progress, another couple of solid days and it will be running. Then the task of getting the fairings to fit.... then I suppose I'll have to ride the thing.

    .

    I love these special 2T team GPR engines.

    I hear there are serious moves being made to limit the Bucket arms race, with the supposed aim of keeping Buckets safe!!!!!! cheap and I suppose the FXR150 and other 4T's relevant, level playing field and all that.

    I fear it may be the beginning of Buckets becoming just a smaller capacity version of the other technically limited class's, boring as bat shit.

    Yeah, its a tough one. Scott was gutted years ago when the SV's entered F3, just made a simple way to kick bikes that were developed to their upmost. You can just buy a potentially winning bike from your local dealer...

    Most of the top end bikes of both types are well developed except for a certain type of 2t that pisses all over everyone to date and is pretty much bought off the shelf to those specs. That is where the problem is. Either everything else has to move up (and it becomes an arms race), or better still, the one type of engine gets limited back somehow.

    Trouble is now, we may be potentially bringing another spanner in the works with us. Difference being, just like your stuff TZ, it has been a lot of effort and is based on a legit commuter bike. I hope things don't change much to be quite honest, the mix is almost right already.
