thought I'd start it up as I have just upped the mains to 135 from the DOHC'c 125/127.5

runs a lot better now as you can hear, but its bloody loud and next door came out saying "Oh you got another bike?" hmm

nice quiet engine as well (compared to the exhaust :lol:)

Its getting there Drewpy, have you got any pics you can post of a finished tracker, one that has inspired you?

neighbours eh, I always get the "have you got the day off then", would love to reply with "you dont miss much, do you"?, but I'm far too busy boiling pig skins out the back for that :mellow::lol::mellow:

started off as kenny roberts modified xs650, then the idea grew from what was around. I get sideburn magazine which captures the spirit of the bikes, and also this.....

on the mile long tracks they are on 120mph and 8o round the bends. :o

Right, that looked like fun up til the clip of them on tarmac hitting haybales, when your finished your project your not gonna do that with it, are you? :mellow:

last time I saw 'action' like this was on a saturday sports programme (cant remember the name) but it was hosted by Dickie Davies, it also had wrestling, with giants like, giant haybales and big daddy, looks like a 'must do' tho', remember folks after you reach an age over, say 7, you dont 'bounce' like you used to, so dont try this at home ! :mellow:
