The second KR is ALIVE !!

Post by the kid »

Well after a shed load of work , the second KR trackie lives and breathes . :D

With help from Nikos, trackie number 2 is alive and most likely a fair bit quicker than trackie no 1!
A little more work before it's finally ready for broadford on the 1st of December but it's running and running well..

Just required eviction of a certain mouse...

First test session on team KJ's private test track proved positive, further report coming once the power valves actually do something...

excellent work Billiam !! and with all the full safety gear recommended by TAC as well !!! Outstanding ..... :lol:

Your shed is rapidly becoming the center of the KR Universe........you know I always wanted one of these, the KR1-S to be precise.......

Hope this one goes well out on the track mate - maybe you should get Smek into the pilot seat ?? A 2-rider team ?? fuck me you will be looking for corporate sponsorship next ! :lol: :lol:

Wanted to call by yesterdy to see the KR HQ but alas got waylaid at the "Epsom Tavern" and then summoned home by " 'er indoors".
The "Epsom Tav" is something to behold and only known to locals - you got another 30 years up there yet.
The swap meet was crap as we had to inspect the trailers as they went out the gate :roll: Did pick up some new tools though and a bargain basement parts washer - cause the guy needed the room on the ute to carry all his crap home :D
Good luck at Broadford. Will definitely be there. Expect 1:12's. Offer of Pit bitch still stands - Have a thong and brella :D
I got a sweater for my birthday. I realy wanted a moaner or a screamer.

Hmmmm Gos , you must be connected to the same rumour mill that has suggested a quick green 10 will be at the creek after being imported from Mexico :roll:
But .... back on topic , this one has "S" wheels , motor and brakes . The frame is interesting as the number does not relate to a normal number and there are some interesting little differences to a normal KR-1 frame , like a brace that is full section of the frame , and a steering dampner mount and bobbin points on the swinger .
I have sharpened the transfer ports also and have a set of S pipes with carbon cans that sound :D
Have a fresh set of Dunlop alpha 10s , a 150 rear with an new 06 R6 shock .
Have arranged for our version of "the Stig" to be on hand at Broady too :twisted: AND he has leathers !!!!
Ummmm let me see

:lol:

yes indeed, the rumour mill is grinding away isn't it....... :shock: :twisted:

The rest of that KR sounds intriguing, to say the least......braced frame ?? Is this a tricked-up grey import perhaps ? Anything like that is worth *a fortune* in the pit-lane psyching-out wars !!!! :lol:

Smek - if you got a 10, then Groggles and Simmo would have some serious competition ! :P
