    New track bike

    Well project Tracday/Clubmans is almost finished stage one

    This is a combined effort by Hellraiser and myself.

    So far
    1. Basically new 06 Kawasaki ZX636 (2k on the clock)
    2. Race fairings (my first attempt at spraypainting, so I hope the vinyls cover most of it eventually)
    3. Ohlins Shock
    4. Ohlins Fork internals
    5. Virgin full race exhaust (looks and sounds absolutly mint, cheers to Warren)
    6. Motul fluids throughout

    Still to fit
    1. Michelin Slicks (will fit once we have sourced tyre warmers)
    2. Braided brake lines
    3. Sintered brack pads
    4. Race numbers

    Planned
    1. Full graphics (being designed at the mo)
    2. Power commander (with dyno time)
    3. Air filter
    4. Rear sets (might just make up spacers)
    5. New chain and sprocket options
    6. Adjustable leavers

    Cant wait to get it onto the track at Taupo this coming Friday (MotoTT trackday)

    Wicked man. Well done, it looks the buisness
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Nice paint job but i still think we should have painted it red so that it would go faster ..........

    Black is The One True Colour.

    Next TD, I'll make sure I hang back a bit before my session. Just in case you're feeling generous again......

    Very nice!!! There were heaps (30+) in Clubmans today. Is this motorcycle racing thing really taking off, or have there always been large numbers turn up!

    See you Friday!! My bikes on the dyno tomorrow so really hope it's fine on Friday!

    Looks great !!! Pity the extra 36cc restricts what class it can be raced in.

    As I've now moved on to a 07 ZX6R, I have a box full of various pieces left over from the 636 should you need anything....

    Nice I was at the race metting yesterday and my man (kyle) was racing in clubings too. He was on my bike which was a CBR600 1994 and he had a good day i believed that there was a 636 that was very competive for that particular class. How come you can only race in clubings? Why not F2 you would be able to do well in that class and not burgel clubbins!

    Race it on F1.
    Itll be fine in there. Specially at Taupo, as there are lots of corners!
    You will learn a hell of alot more in F1 too.
    Motorcycing is not a hobby, It is a way of life!
