Looks like you've got your work cut out for you.

got it home. it's been stood a while but a quick strip and clean of the carbs, put all the settings back to base and it fired up and runs sweet as a nut! all the electrics run as it should, shock has plenty of damping. seems it should be ok.....

Well, it was once rumoured I did a trackday.

Glad you enjoyed the site. Cool

Quality buy mate! You should get plenty of bits off ebay.

Gaz I was checking out your videos and remember the MZ seizing one well but had to watch again! That's some darky left!

Getting squashed by the rapidly closing zx6-r was more worrying IMO.

None of either.

Even less now the end seized.

When it was a road bike it would touch 90mph flat out tucked in.
Now it's had a lot of its weight removed. (no battery, large chunks of the frame removed). I suspect it now maybe does a real 90mph with the wind behind me, down a hill.

Power is claimed at about 18-20bhp.

It's certainly no animal.

I've only done 2.5 on it.

At snetterton everyone and their uncle flew past on the straights. But there were some nice long fast corners and my corner speed isn't bad.

Next track was lydden, nice and tight, I was one of the quickest in the group.

Then I did silverstone and was blown away all over the place. Still made a few overtakes, but then it seized.

A slow bike certainly isn't an issue if you're not afraid of hanging off and leaning it over.
