    Bucket for sale

    Ready to race. GS125. Got this from one of the Welly guys a while back now. Did all the necessaries to fit/setup rearsets and so on. Ran competitively at Waipawa. Also ran at Taupo on the old track - with a sprocket change, it was reaching around 130kph, so it's no slug for a 125. No longer using it. Great pile of spares too.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    We'll have none of those aspersions. Plastic indeed . Nothing but the finest Japanese metal. Original handle wasn't cool enough, so has now got the loveliest clipons.

    This used to be EddieB's. There are 2 complete assembled bottom ends (full casings minus barrels), 2or3 heads which are a bit sad, rocker gear, valves, cams, at least 1 loose clutch, barrel, sundry loose gearbox internals, sprockets, paddock stand, etc.
    In fact, there is everything I got from EddieB plus some other bits and pieces. I replaced the exhaust system, fitted rearset pegs, fixed the rear brakes and gearshift and sorted some issues it had with carburation. Also gave it a proper paint job with automotive 2pot metallic blue.

    Is that bike still on 18" rims? Any idea cost to send to Christchurch? Did the stroker kit that EddieB had, ever get fitted to this bike?

    Still on 18" rims, what is a stroker kit?
    Freight - who knows, but interisland is pretty pricey

    I got my bucket put on Blue Bridge and did a road trip to Picton cost $50 for an unacompanied bike. They seemed pretty chilled unlike the interislander who are anal and will only take a bike if you are a passenger, Bluebridge guys let me wander on and untie the bike and ride it off.


    Its harder to lose weight than gain horsepower.
