MeanBean49 Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Ive slowly been collecting bits to build a flat track style gsxr turbo to have a go at the Inapropriate road bike flat track racing at Scunthorpe. Ive now got all the main parts together and will be starting to get it built. Hopefully before the end of summer. Got a long swingarm, slingshot frame, bandit lump with lockup and busa pistons, a K series 600 front end and a VF23 turbo that will be intercooled (same setup as my Spondon) going to run Continental TKC80's and laugh my head off trying to make it go. What could possibly go wrong 15 Quote

Gammaboy Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Will the pegs be 12" different in height left to right? Or is it proper left/right flat-track? Quote

I think its oval at Scunthorpe but they do other events at Pickering and few other places, think the do propper left right stuff Quote
MeanBean49 Posted June 5, 2018 Author Posted June 5, 2018 Still at the parts collection stage, now got dilemmas over what front end to use. I aquired this triumph one which ive been after for ages, but also just got hold of this mega trick r1 radial front with the mega cool 6 pots Quote
