    Work on her a bit longer and she will come around. 2 jobs is easy , 3 is whats needed for a good race budget though.

    Not a problem Brother, just glad you bought my bike back in one peace. Have to admit, i didnt watch much of the race tho, to nerve racking! lol
    Hopfully it has given u enough points to take F3!!!!! as long as u dont have any more ooppssess
    Neil You have 1 Awesome brother in AJ for what he did for you at the last round. Its so great to see and an real inspiration. Im sure you already know this and if the boot was on the other foot you would have done the same for him.

    I got Carrillo conrods,race crank,cams and flatslides coming and considering total loss.Should be good for 170hp when we are finished.Seriously too expensive.Will open and inspect then decide.Was hard enough to convince Suzanne the wiseco kit and 39mm fcr were necessary items as it is.
    Carrillo rod kit is 1100usd so not this time.LOL
    We may send crank away to APE for knife edge if everything else is to spec inside and the costs dont climb to much.New connecting rod bolts and adjustable cam sprockets are on the way so should be agood start.The info I have says conrods are strong but bolts are the weak link.May shot peen them anyway.

    Is there anywhere in NZ that lightens cranks that are highly recommended.
    APE charge $300 usd approx plus freight for knife edge ,lighten and balance.

    Well, to be fair, AJ was still buzzing from the 28 point lead he now has in the postie championship.... Great jesture though...

    I already consider you a total loss, so that part is already done.
    Seriously though you have been bitten hard by the postie bug, I hope it all works out well.
