Yes it was there and yes it went quick. as far as my knowledge goes he would have been sweet to run it as a bucket but chose/insisted to run in streetstock.
which in due course was referred to the appropriate authorities at the track on the day and a protest was lodged in regards to suspension and exhaust noise level, as these were the two most obvious illegal parts that could be investigated on the day without a mechanical strip-down.
Some people are fed up with cheaters entering into a street-stock class as the name suggests and stealing trophies away from the young fellas who trying to get into racing.
i believe the limp wristed mnz man at the top of the heirachy that day gave him a slap with the wet bus ticket. I think he was told to remove the two above mentioned items.
It felt like a waste of time given the amount of support from the racers, club officials and club members who were involved with the protest, they did their part by the book by sticking to the class rules.
The owner and rider of the bike had the cheek to sit there and say "if you protest us i have enough money and i will protest every other streetstock bike out there" the rider also admitted they had just fitted aftermarket Cams infront of the officials at the meeting...
frankly don't give a sh*t how much money you have, go race in a different Class instead of pinching trophies off beginners
(or admit you have a bucket eligible bike and enter it in the appropriate class)
The Repsol bike was raced at TRRS last year in street stock and he was flying, won as well I think.
He started with the street stocks 20seconds ahead of the buckets. I did get past him on my FXR. He was on wets also. Thats an advantage over other street stocks.
He should have raced in the bucket class and lots of other buckets would have passed him. Its not a street stock if its not stock. Anyway back to buckets.
mmmmmmmm race cam... just what i need for the RG50... that'll fuck em![]()
what a ride so far!!!!
Well, a couple of things, when they raced at Levels in the Nationals, in the results/timing charts they were listed under another class Junior 150 or something similiar. Also I guess as the 150SS class isnt a National championship class they arent to concerned. But yeah, the guy is an ass thats for sure.
He gets well fired up when you call his bikes buckets ...
Anyone got the link for his auctions?
This is the only one he has on at the moment, hasn't relisted the two street stock buckets

I think you guys are acting like cocks, if you want a fast bucket buy it, its way cheaper that jason U wanted for his 20 year old bucket engine in a bodged frame remember $5000.? It is a diesel, he may swap it for 3 or 4 lbs of pot who knows, maybe he thinks these questions are serious.
It appears this guy knows more about SS150 diesel rules than most here.
My neighbours diary says I have boundary issues
That is the point, he was saying they were SS bikes in his auction description. Then he got all pissy quoting the rules when people asked the question. Sounds like he did the same thing while racing them.
They may be great as buckets, but he needs to be honest when talking about SS.
I always act like a cock, how do I get in on the action?
& Jason was having a laugh with that 5k bit. Having said that I know his bike & the engineering on it was well thought out (well possibly engine position needed a tweak) & the bike when running properly (the first time I rode it) would have slaughtered anything else I've ridden. It was faster than Joe1.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Supposedly he will be running Yamaha R125's next rear complete with the Malossi race kits. This includes a 180cc big bore kit! Wonder what class he is going to run them in?
