    It ended very badly. Handbags at dawn sort of stuff.

    A pity because the Aprilia RS250 running ger 500cc 2T was utter sex. Is that video the one filmed in UnZud?

    edit: yup

    That was the GP 250's was it not...hell it's laughable that MNZ can kid themselves and call an SV a F3/superlite (a contradictive term if ever there was one) yet turn around and ban a proper (and now old) lightweight racebike from F3.

    But anyway I look forward to seeing the RS/RZ 400 out there.

    This should breathe some new life and excitement into the class.

    It hasn't ended. They are still working to get those who have spent money an engine that runs. Thread here http://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/s...roblems/page28

    we had a customer that had his eye on doing on of these as well, already had the RS250 as a doner bike, but Wobbly makes (or at least designs) some very cool things, although i have yet to ever see one running in the flesh,

    Just so you all know, there is no "they" trying to keep TSS500 customers happy with parts they paid for.
    The lying, thieving, piece of shit Australian partner that slags me off on various forums, with great screeds of twisted bullshit, owes the customers money or parts.
    I never received a cent of customer money and had nothing to do with the lies that they were told.
    I feel dumb really, for not walking away ( if I could ) when he advertised for sale,a running bike that I hadnt even started yet.

    Anyway old boring shit,
    The Superlight class rules have finally been ratified by MNZ.
    Here is what I AM responsible for.

    Billy has just finished the glass, so the first bike will be at a track day test very soon, two more on the way.
    I will post a video of this asap.
    Ive got a thing thats unique and new.To prove it I'll have the last laugh on you.Cause instead of one head I got two.And you know two heads are better than one.

    There's heaps of life in this class Robert, and the guys breathing it deserve at least some respect for out of the box thinking already.

    Don't get me wrong, two stroke race bikes are fuggin awesome, (I think that is because it's what we grew up with), but the technology is pretty much reserved for snowmobiles and watersports these days, and the bikes are gonna be seen only in classic racing inside our lifetime.

    Karma will in the end sort this Wobbly, in my world there are lying and twisting people as well, predisposed to telling huge fairy tales of adventure. Those of us that have known you for a long time know that you are a talented engineer with ethics to match.
    Long live 2 strokes!
