    rule is getting a bit fuzzy.

    2-Strokes in the points racing at Mt Welly yesterday, and about time .....

    The Dominic Howe was won by Dave M riding an MB100 powered RS50 prepaired by Speedpro with a 25hp 80cc stroker runner up.

    And F5 was 2-Strokes 1-2 all day long.

    Sounds great Clive, - especially as i find the numbers are one of the greatest challenges to get "just right" when buidling a race bike....... :-)

    No. Its just coincedence. It hasnt even got to me yet. Looks like SCA like me trailer and wets front was. Ill sand them back till I have removed 2mm of ally thickness to lighten the wheels up perhaps???????

    I still have some of the trick paint from the FZR in the garage should I paint it up all nice?
    Look what you made me do to the last paint job the first time we raced. My painter wanted to divorce me.

    Thats you sorted Glen. Man up and buy this one and if your not happy with the Steering Head angle bend the front forks to suit. This can be done by riding into the back of your garage until your happy with the result.
