Racing a Z1000 in naked bike class at sporties??

OK, after an ehaustive search thru my AMCN archives I found them. Its over about 3 or 4 articles so I'll list the main mods.

Braided lines - $198
Power Commander, fitted - $685
Akropovic system - $2400
Rearsets - $399
520 conversion - $350
Ducktail - $200
Front guard - $110
Hugger - $90
Nose - $220
Mtoby Damper - $749

Suspension by Shock Treatment
race tech fork springs .95kg, up from ,78kg std- $175
fork re-valve - one leg - $149
zx6r shock - re-valve - $175

Top speed at eastern creek 238 kph best lap time was 1:44... I think

Best lap time at P.I. was a 1:45 so the bike was getting better by the end of the season.. PI is about 3 to 4 seconds slower than E.C...

genius.... **copies and pastes**

and 238, thats pretty much as quick as they go, unless the power commander and pipe gets massive top speed improvements, mine dies in the ass about there...

That was the suspension mod to one fork only. They also added the zx6r dog bones to raise the rear ride height by 17mm and they raised the forks in the triple clamps by 6mm.

wattie call terry hay at shock treatment, you wont be dissapointed.

where are they at?? far to go to take my bits to them?

Thats gold!

I have all those bits spare!

Cheers MadKaw

Here tis Wattie, he is at Wallacia.

I rang him to ask him about the Zed, as he has done all my bikes.
He said he has done heaps of Zed's
He said front and back new springs and gold valves & fixing up dummy leg to have adjustment around $850 all up, and it will be a different bike.

Tis better than any horsepower mod IMO. He did the amcn track bike.

No worries, i'll be around friday afternoon and saturday. Prob duck down to glens on sat morning. But i'll be around.
I'm doing this post from my mobile phone. How good am i? Haha

how do you do it from your mobile you cheeky bastard.

Varden,

i need someone to race. Buy an old '95 ZX6R or ZXR750 and come New Era Racing with me. the Sporties charge less for entry fees and the money you save on buying the bike you could 'reinvest' into the bike.

Whats a up to Dec race/trackbike 95 ZX6 worth?

Mate i am soooo tempted!!

I'd have change after selling the Zx6R!

Someones gotta give you some competition!

Ya' know if you and Greenmeanie got stuck into the old stuff, KSRC could end up OWNING the New Era class around here...... Would be very cool. Our stranglehold on the Superbike thing is not so strong.........

Having said that I am really liking the idea of racing a Z1000 Nationally in the Naked class. However it is just the small problem of the 50k plus needed to do it each year......
