Hopefully sometime soon tim and i will get our collective asses into gear and get the weapon back out on the track.

just wheel it out to the car park and measure ppl up for it...

Very cool Phil.

So what sort of power does the modded XR motor make? Is it comparable to the later 450 singles?

A guy I know up here has a RS125 frame with a CR500 2 smoker in it, should be pretty fast I reckon.

Funniest thing about monos is that they sound like they are going so bloody slow, but when you watch them they are hauling.
