will probably use my usuall sources for parts as most of them give me some Discount

Belts and Oil filter ---- Brancato Engineering
Silkolene Oil ----------- Harpers of Cowley
Spark Plugs------------ Harpers of Cowley or Palmer & Phillips (read Senna3's business)
Aeroquip Hoses ------ Race Parts UK
Rear shock Spring---- Race Parts UK
Brake Pads-------------Denis Trollope Racing
Race Can link Pipe----Bike It (may see if I can get a deal on Viper race cans and link pipes for both monsters and SSs through my friend there)
Tyres-------????? Got some already should last a couple of meetings, just have to pinch them off the ZXR400.

I can't see me forking out for a Big bore kit, I want to do it as cheap as possible, I had to chuck a £4k bike in the skip at the TT in 2004.
The question I want answered is how well can a bike costing less than £2k do in this series.

Costings of my 600 Desmo Due racer (will probably put this under a seperate topic as the list grows) will have to think of market prices for the stuff I already have or see if I have the info on what they originally cost me

Bike------------------------------------- £770
Link Pipe--------------------------------
Micron can (Had it already)----------
Rear sets--------------------------------
Belts--------------------------------------
Oil----------------------------------------- £20 4ltrs
Oil Filter----------------------------------
Plugs--------------------------------------
Aeroquip lines--------------------------- £10ea
? Dynojet kit-----------------------------
916 Fairing (Have already)------------

and so on
