Looks awesome mate. Its payday so im going to order some ally box section and start the butchering :-)

Getting there now mate. All looks good

Sent you a text mate. Sorted ;-)

Well heres the start, got a frame, tank and swingarm that will firm the basis of the project. I also picked up this awfully nice pukka big bore yoshi system for a reasonable amount of pennies. Will get the dummy engine from my lockup this weekend and start offering up

Or depending on group, happy to give bit of guidance while im out

Didnt think they worked at all. 1052 uses twin ignition pickup, 1127 uses single.

Ive been running my IHI bb without the water cooling for 2 years now with no problems. Done numerous track days, speed trials and road miles

I think my bike is considered classic and rare, think some old triumphs might be getting a shock :-)

Payment sent :-)

What you mean by S - plural? Will send deposit as soon as i know :-)

No its bandit

Awesome. Cant wait to see it

Better everywhere

To be honest i find the 36mm gsxr carbs better than these anyway

Nice idea, but if i were to argue that i would be told to build an 85 gsxr 750 lol

Just says in the rules that no flatslides unless origional fitment. Think im on top of carbs. Got some gsxr 36's and rubbers that fit them to air cooled head

Not allowed to use them unfortunately.

So it seems like its all systems go to build a bike to compete in the 4 hour Endurance Legends event on May 6-7th. Plan is to shoehorn an air cooled 8v motor into a modified slabby 11 frame to create a fairly convincing XR41 replica. I can then use 43mm rwu forks, 120/180 17" tyres and 4 pot brakes. So handling and stopping should be pretty good Engine spec is to remain fairly modest, the focus being mainly on reliability and useable grunt. Picked my frame up from Vizman yesterday, ive got a tank, engine is pretty much sorted and im fairly sure i can piece together a front end and matching rear wheel so it shouldnt take too long to get it rolling. Bits that need aquiring are carbs, exhaust, a good race shock and some bodywork mainly. Should all be fairly easy to source. I best get cracking :-) Oh yeah, i think it would be quite fitting to call it "The Flying Hammer" any thoughts?

Yeah its a bit pants but like the organisers said you cant differentiate between novices, and they dont want someone whos done nothing but the licence day turning up and entering

Hopefully we can get John sorted to race. Picked up a frame to bastardise today so Team OSS xr41 rep endurance bike is Go Obligatory build thread to follow soon

S-rad or k series 600 forks are really good if you want to keep it rwu, s-rad let you use same calipers. Zx9r c1 model forks are good and cheap too

The white 4 and 6 pin connectors you get on Eblag are the same as gsxr cdi's. Just use the male half and plug straight in

Oh ok. Let me know when you got some :-)

Looks good mate. Gone busa rods as well as pistons this time? Reckon those red drain tubes are sapping at least 15bhp tho. I just need spacer plate and my new motor will be finished too. See what difference big valve ported head makes. Is it next year yet?
