"channellling the Pleideans"
Its a hell of a thing though: the difference between riding a 675 and racing one. Its a 240kph, 100 hp motorbike. Not a particularly forgiving learner race bike.Originally Posted by Crasherfromwayback
And spend at least as much as anyone does on an actual motorcycle. Heaven forbid you get a Triumph 675 or similar, so you can do BEARS meets as well.

It does say OBO and I'll bet he isn't being inundated with offers....Well I stand corrected.
I was thinking it was at least $500 too expensive.
Try him at $1500
Better still, get an FXR150 then he can go Bucket racing.

Yeah the RGV150 was dreadful and they usually break pistons which is odd. The RG is a totally different bike.
What on earth are you on about Pete? My multichampionship 50 I sold for 2&1\2 thou, a set of 2nd hand slicks lasts at least a year, and there's a cheap local event every month.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Get a gixxer cup bike and get a full race kit with it.
Forum whore
What does the full race kit include? A different sprocket and some stickers me thinks.
Ta
Fairing, bars, levers, full pipe. And some other stuff.
Add to that a race suit, helmet, gloves and boots.
So Yeah, fuck all.

...as soon as I had posted I realised the V part was not part of the deal... the rest of the meanderings were pretty close though...if you have a set budget to race a bike, double it before you even start and start saving even harder...forever...
