Grrrr ... I have an idea for a SoT bike that wold kick the arse of a few bikes out there now ... I just need someone to help me with the cash side of things ... oh well ... maybe a TZ :D

"maybe a TZ"-maybe a TZ what??-you would never FIT on a TZ mate-on the other hand perhaps you would, there is a guy who races MRO who weighs about 19stone and races a TZ, it looks like a minimoto but he still races, and he's quick..............:o

Whats in your mind Tony??

John

Ahh, that fateful question dreaded by every Aussie :P

Ha ... beer!

I'm not really considering racing a TZ to be honest. There is a bike I'd love to build and race and there is a couple of series for it. So it's spec would ultimately be dependant on the rules fo the series that is chosen but it would be pretty good I reckon. Just not cheap :(

Oh well ...

When you say not cheap, what kind of money are we talking about? 8 grand for the bike (new), another 5 to sort it?

Yes

Or, between £2k-£5k for a used bike depending on condition and maybe £5k-£7k to sort that.

Ah, got it. If my thinking is correct, you may find that "sorting it" doesn't cost quite as much as you think, especially if you "sort it as you get faster". A lot of "sorting" being done on race bikes is left over thinking from blinging up bikes for trackdays.

Oh no, not me sir! Never!:rodent:

TP, just do it!

All good points.

Unfortunately it's a moot point because I don't have the cash to even buy the bike!
