that old thing's a honey, probably about 2 more than mine currently, but hopefully will redress that with non leaking seals.Originally Posted by crazy man

Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Let's go Crazy.
Havn't had some onboard stuff for a while, so here's Crazyman's first race from Roys Hill.
Grab a grappling hook, and go catch that #92.
Why Not???: MNZ975.
The aftermath of Roys Hill; a cold (not enough Port or rum me thinks) and a gearbox fill of yoghurt (a stuffed impossible to find waterpump shaft seal) which explained the over heating and filled catch bottle.
The engine has been removed and stripped again this week (I should just come back from racing and pull the engine out as a matter of course).
Managed to find some smaller seals at SKF Palmerston North (right on closing; big ups to the only staff member there, whom stayed open and solve the problem on a Saturday).
Afternoon spent machining up a shim to accept the smaller seal size and making new gaskets (thanks Crazyman for the Lathe).
Small adjustment to the Barrel (lifted to sort out the transfers) and modification to head to suit
Motor back in the frame. Half the bolts left to tighten up then back on the dyno to reduce the HOLE some more....
gotta love buckets...
SideNote: Friday night there was a very happy man (will remain nameless) from Wellington; whom picked up his newly built GPR150 motor (from GPR headquarters) and did a few Dyno runs after installing it in his frame. Sounds great and performed smack on the targeted output (with big broad torque curve with real punch down low)... I suspect he will be in A-grade very soon (I'm not going back to Welly until he is)....

Thats a shame indeed, had a good dunlop but that went with the H a few years ago.

I have some Yokohama Sprints that have been under the house if they are any good to you. Gave them to Speedpro for his Mb50 but his boy has moved on to F4 and he gave them back
Forum whore
think l even have some new ones lying around . was thinking of putting them on but still 15 years old . a pain riding 2 bikes with way diffent grip

Looks like it is F4 or nothing then. Sidecar and 50 a non starter, shame, but I think Regan is happier concentrating on his favourite machine.
Still going to be a lot of fun and I think that F4 race will be a cracker!

Get that sidecar sorted or it may just be two of us wobbling around again.
Stock is best

Kinky is using a feather. Perverted is using the whole chicken
Forum whore
what am l looking for . to tired to think
Why Not???: MNZ975.
What Husa is suggesting is that you lovely frames are nicer than someone elses....
Pull the 50 out and put it in my frame (grab my other swingarm and make some mounts)....

The Yokos will be fine, slam em on, free to race another class, just do it..
