Its Back - and better.!

Post by MadKaw »

After the off at the Wakefield Park race practice, caused by an errant radiator hose, I figured I'd get the Pirate back up to its former glory before it takes to the track again.
Took a lot longer than I expected but I wanted it right and everything fixed, checked and sorted...
Big thanks to the following ppl, I really appreciate the help.
Damon - for the panel repairs, painting and making more room in my Bar by getting rid of that 1 litre bottle of JD. :D
Frank - Wattie and Hoffy for there regular attendance, assistance and for also creating more room in my bar. :wink:
Mario - For knocking up the fairing bracket. I hope the additional weight of the fabricated s/s is made up for in there ability to withstand impacts, unlike the last alum ones..
Josh - For hand delivering and supplying the engine lock nuts, perfect timing, thanks. :D
RobRacer - RT Screen Printing - For the new stickers. Another great job and we now have TrakDaze on there too...
Pete from Kaneg - My new sponsor.. Thanks heaps for the tyre warmers, they really look the goods, lets hope I do them justice.

I'd also like to thank my wife and family and most of all Jesus for making this all possible.... Oh sorry wrong speach... :oops:

Anyway heres some pics..

The fairings were from an endurance racer I believe. The front had a cut out for headlight... We bogged it up..
