So this is what happened to chappys bike at the Taupo round of the Nationals

[CHOPPA]

Choppa's going to turn up shortly & kick your arse publicly id say. He does when its us.
You got a lot of abuse pushing the bike back??? holy shit, I didnt know you'd actually done it deliberately up until now.

Haha no id only do that if Neil fixed his bike with some fucken lego and went back out for race 2 and I crashed on the oil....

Bad luck man, those are some blistering times!!

Wouldn't have saved it......
Unless a limator does something different to a limiter

Bugger bro. I was kinda hoping the ER6 would be stronger than the SV motors, since they go a tad better and are easier to transplant into other frames.

We measured one up, and it looks like it'd fit in an RGV frame, which are easier and cheaper to find than ZXR400s like your beast.

Well we were running std rods - the Je pistons and pins are heavier too - It was most probably rod stretch that got em, so it hit the head and let go. I experienced the same problems on my ZXR. ZXRs frames are a dime a dozen, I have 2 of them spare in my shed! but yep the head is narrow as, its the clutch and Gbox that's really large so we had to do some grinding in that area..... Allowing for the torque is the big one, rear end setup is proving hard as the grunt is smashing tires. But we are very close.

The mods we did at the start were fairly std issue - new motor is going to be built....and we'll do a bit more :-)

I pulled down my motor today, seems she threw a rod doing some big damage to the bottom end but we will get her back on track

Some pretty severe downshifts old chap. Me thinks that is what made your motor dun blowed up.
