heres the photos on this link its a bit more orange in real life then that but all in all looks and goes really well and ended up getting it for $4000 i pick it up this weekend so i will post some picks when its home..
im thinkin a lime green respray hehe cheers guys i hope u dont disown me

I saw that listed on the formula xtreme website - it looks OK. So what are you doing with the zxr250???

Cool Tim, you can practice on this then upgrade to a winning kwaka ZXR400SP
Price seems ok, hopefully the motor is good cause rebuilds on those things can be crippling

Awesome tim, but who am i going to battle with now you have a upper hand now with a 400cc, anyway concrats.

Nice bike Tim, but mate you keep buying Hondas we are gonna think that something is up

also that rear tyre looks awfully small, looks like something out of a 250. what size is it?

Most 400cc bikes i've seen have a 150, 160 rear.

termies!!!!!!

nice one mate...

nice trackie looks very sweet.

yerrr i knoe the rear tyres a 150/60 18 which ant much bigger then the zxr but gives alot better range of tyres, then engine was put in by the previous owner with 17.000 klms on it.

previous owner polised pistons and changed rings and piston pins, checked valve clearance, and checked compression which measures really good, had photos to prove everything to so that was good, all that was done 2 track days ago and was dyno tuned with a result of 68hp at the rear bit on the b/s side i think although he had papers to prove so yer i guess it would be a bit higher with the custom exhaust and hrc airbox setup but yer will believe it when i see it for myself

ran really well and no wierd noises from the engine and everything seems to be ok so hopefully it stays that way hehe

and brendan when u get more confidence it will be a good battle i think the rider had the upper hand the other day hehe although u did ride well for your first ec day congrats

as the zxr's concerned i will be keeping it and race in the 400's and lightweights on the zxr and at the track i will sit a 4 sale sign behind the zxr to see if someone sees interest in it no rush to get rid of it dont really wanna to be honest unless the right price gets put on the table

so yer i will be goin to another track day within the next few weeks to see how i go on the vfr
cheers Tim
