She looks lovely, Ali. Possibly a bit too smart for you, but hey ho, that won't last :P:D

So with only one round left this year I'm assuming you'll be racing next year too - you surely wouldn't have bought her just for the one race?


PS Can I have a go on her? Are you at Brands for TA5?

Going to try and locate a decent engine and do a complete strip and rebuild. Frame could do with a lick of paint and I'd like to get an alloy swinger on her. She's never going to be the prettiest of bikes, but it'd be a sin to just throw another engine in without doing the basics.

Got a few ideas as to what she'll be doing next year, but nothing confirmed yet.

Cheers! Vote of confidence in my skills as a mechanic and a rider... :(

This round will have to be setup for next year, and a bit of fun too.

Of course, but I'm not at TA5. Welcome to borrow her, as long as she comes back in decent shape....

I've collected my 'spare' engine now - but not had time to look inside it - externally its like many - rough - but the bloke (another racer) said he had it running before he broke the bike to sell the parts.
I want the hydraulic clutch and ignition pickups - which is essentially the 2 side cases worth - for my tt2 pantah, and then its 'just' a spare standard crankcase and cylinders ... can you see where my thoughts are going ?

It all depends on how 'decent' an engine you want - as for a small fee, I can pop the heads and check the rings and barrels, clean the combustion chambers, match the manifolds to the heads, shim it, and replace the belts.
Or something.

OOH..that sounds illegal ..that matching of manifolds to the heads.!..............im gonna be watching you Phil in the 583 class....sounds like you tinker to much..........:D

You don't know what Louigi is doing to your engine yet :P

I feel a protest coming on :lol:

Wayhey, girl on girl action :o :saint: :D
