i heard reports of him trying to crash start it all the time and not starting.

but thats only what i heard and it says the bike needs a rebuild

**FROSTY:Me** · 5th March 2007, 20:17

**nc30vfr400** · 6th March 2007, 11:41

You could ring Just Fairings in Hamilton and get a price for race fairings for your bike. With that, and a set of rearset pegs and some sticky rubber, you've got yourself a racebike

**nc30vfr400** · 6th March 2007, 19:14

why a set of rearsets? how are they necasary for racing? excuse my dumbness

You shouldn't have any trouble getting a good old 400 or 250 as most people want to sell them so they can get a 650 twin.

Wonder if Shaun still has Bretts old bike? Just turn up to a race meet like the next Pacific round and ask someone with a bike you like if its for sale. Then if its a 400 and you want to be competive look at spending some serious money on making it a hot 450.
