New Track Weapon

[ducati_paul]

As many of you will know I sold my ZX10 to pay for a trip riding over the Himalayas next year, I figured it's only a year without a Trackbike then I can look for something else Well I couldn't do it! So I have been keeping my eye out for a replacement, I was tempted by a new H2R but not sure if it would have enough power for me so what do you get instead? ......



















it seems to be pretty good bike, it's a 2013 model GT650R with only 2102km and I got it for $1175, it was obviously a stat write off and it WAS a LAMS bike but I've already removed the restrictor plate to unleash the Ponies the right fairing was missing so I removed the left side and will run it as a nekkid
It has a decent dent in the tank

And a crack in the nose

But it'll do me for a while and I think for the money I spent I should get a bit of fun out of it

Nice work mate. Paint it Green and put a Kawasaki sticker on it and you'll confuse everyone.

And you'll probably still beat me riding your old Gumby around the Creek

Did you end up getting the rear end sorted?

Yeah I did Glen, I did all the bearings in the swingarm while I had it out. The sleeve had to go on back order from Kawasaki so I only just managed to get it all back together last sunday... then flew out to work on tuesday for 3 weeks

Next track day I can make around my work roster is first week in March...
