Mini-motard for bucket racing?

Don't feed the Troll Kyle.

I gotta say though, I'd love the wheels off that DR. They look light and good sized.

Mmmmmm, spoked alloy rims make me horny.

Keep away from my bike if it rains then, its slippery enough without Mair Juice on the tyres.

I've just finished my 3.5" rim for the back, only issue is it is so wide it can only fit in the last inch of the swingarm adjusters- without rubbing the tyre on the sides of the skinny front of the sw, so I'll have to be careful with gearing options & extra link to allow me to run it.

yea i knew it had been done before, i raced against a couple of then at roys hill (DRZ and a XL125). was also a pitster pro that used to race aswell

Nah he was no competition at all.

[F5 Dave]

And no more than an XL or TS125.

[Shorty_925]

Maybe that new bike of his will be!

[Shorty_925]

And no more than an XL or TS125.

Both of those would come with lights and everything else to put them on the road, DRZ125's dont. Back to the thread, ive tried the 'motard style' with a DRZ, doesnt work as well as the knee up option, but that could be something to do with the length of leg...

As for motards in with F3, if only there were a few more like this http://www.formula-xtreme.com.au/xtr...f?opendocument out there it would be great.

How muchy? I need a 17in front quite badly.

[Shorty_925]

On second thought, convice the wife to get a DRZ125, find the spare wheel, got me a bucket again!

They raced, they crashed. getting tempted to see who's keen on helping out with the protest fee to sort this shit out. Do any of these guys flag (serious question, I have no idea). I will no longer go on the track with these people. and I'm being seriously polite.
I'mat the point I don't care if I put people off, I do anot think carving up someone on a 100 in practice (on practice day) is called for.

it was easily sorted when JC was in charge ( if HE thought they where carving people up he would have told them to pack the trailer and dont come back)

just ask Nigel what happens when you start knocking people off

Will you get to your predictible & moronic point. You don't race, you never will. What are you doing here anyway? Apart from spouting dribble?

Actually ex-streetstock 150, as well as hill-climb and trials. But found for the same amount of coin was getting more enjoyment on the road (just personal preference). Always was a fan of the buckets, and sidelined a good 20 years ago. But found that when I had the knack to actually do it - life had changed........also was too big for my gear

Point it pretty simple - but if you must know, interested to see what peoples thoughts are with off the shelf Japanese dotards for buckets. As it seems that only the Chinese ones are banned........
Which is funny because RG's, AX's, GN's............

Or am I missing something. Is this about wheel size?

New ones do.

However notice there is a stinger on trademe for $1300. So if I had $1300 that's what I would race (while all the purest classic owners would call it sacrilege)
