Hi Gary,
Looking good
But even by my standards, I think you are a little bit early with the Mr Sheen
Keep the photos coming [-o<
Cheers

Re: 2x engine build
I think your bike deserves much better suspension than ZXR400's. something from mid 2000 onwards.
My ultimate goal is to die young as late as possible !

a mate has a complete spotless front end off a fire blade 2000 model

front rs250 wheel
radiator
brembo rear caliper and carrier

a mate is picking up the engine mounts to bore the holes to 12mm on something better than a hand drill

then strip it again and get it to a welder

Re: 2x engine build

Re: 2x engine build
