Must say I am a little worried about pugging in the pumper. When I had it hooked up the throttle was a total on off switch. Need to get the squirt down to one second. Standard for this carb was a 3 second squirt that would fire out of the front for about 3 feet.

No need for propaganda buddy. They seem to sell well already. Its you blow up 2 stroke bandits that need a little PR boost. Any way heal up fast so I can smash you.

Thought I would take some photos to get into the paint design. Will try mock something up soon.

Getting there. She is getting fat. Must weight it again. After it is all up and racing I will put it on more of a diet. Already gone over every bolt and cut them short. Need to make a new airbox and fit a hugger.

Not as bent as you. But yes it is acutely a little off. Will try harder next time.

Think it looks fantastic now, except the tailpiece. Make the tail look like the tank.

Nah don't like the tank. Watch this space_________

What does the tank weigh? How about a smaller plastic pit bike type tank under a fibreglass/carbon cover?

Yeah tank is not to bad. It is lighter than an FXR tank but still heavy compared to an Ali race tank. Going to make it a little heavier today with some paint if I get a chance.
