    Excellent, lets build up F5. I'm working on an FXL100 for Michelle at the moment and when that's finished (and if it works OK) will start trying to put an F5 bike together for myself.

    XL100 engine
    FXR frame
    I think he's trying to get me to go faster (good luck with that part), but see if I enjoy F5 more than B grade.
    I dunno, it keeps him quiet(ish), and I'm pretty sure it all started when he had so much fun riding Cully's bike in F5 (plus me being asked by so many people if I'd ever considered moving into F5 - which I hadn't really, more just giving up and going road riding more) lol

    Oooo, at an outside guess, maybe an XL100 in an FXR chassis?

    Bugger the budget if that what takes your fancy.

    Spend what you want on whatever you want keeping within the rules.

    As long as you are having fun, no matter how fast or slow you go.
    Yes 4 strokes are for homos. Homo-sapiens that is, who have realized bigger is better.

    I think I've spent about $800 on mine so far. It's not going to cost much more before it's on the track. As it is, it won't be competitive at the pointy end of A grade, but I'll be looking to mix it up with the other punters in B grade. So long as I can beat that Richard Hayes homo at Kaitoke I'll be happy.

    What would you get and would it be able to better TeeZee's home built engine.
    Wobbly, CKT and F1 engineering should be able to whip up something nice between them..

    I think it is based on quotes like this.

    "Fortunately for the two-stroke fraternity, a chance meeting with famed Grand Prix Engineer Wayne 'Wobbly' Wright unlocked the key to really perfecting these promising hybrids. Over a career spanning more than 30 years, Wayne has designed and built and tuned the best. As a 500cc GP Engineer, he built race-winning pipes for the Red Bull Yamaha racing team. His engines and pipes and ignitions have won GPs and Championships all over the world."

    I am not sure that any of the new engines are actually racing. I am sure that if wobbly built a bucket engine put it in an RS frame or what ever and put a racer on it we would be fucked.

    Proof is in results and the last big in counter goes 1, 2, 3, to the FXRs developed buy Kelford and copied buy many.

    Are you ready to change that result?

    How many people have thrown their platinum cards at wobbly and said "make it rain" ?

    Google search Wayne "wobbly" Wright..

    assuming this is still about moto3 , the engine in the honda isnt exactly state of the art ..
    twin cam , chain driven...... what did they do , mod a existing casting and skim the head....
