Yep...ditto...I cant do it. I have no probs holding the throttle flat going past 200 in my Torrie on a race track...but on a bike... pppfffttt ...bugger that, I get scared going past 140 on a bikeGood stuff, looks like lots of fun! I've got big respect for you guys - takes big balls to push one of those things to the limits on the track.
Keep us up to date on how you go...
Good luck with it.

Need to make some changes will drop a touth of rear spkt to tame it down a little and that will also lengthen the wheel base a bit
You just cant get on the gas it just wants to turn itself over good fun for playing but no good for going fast
But even though i had to fight it still did some quite fast times got down to 59.4 not bad time for practice day

im fearfull of this point, still yet to push it. curiosity killed the cat they say, lets hope my draggin jeans are armco railing proof.It's even better when the back wheel brakes traction and rear wheel steers the bike round the corner.
The bike looks awesome, what were you riding previously?

Lol, got 1.45 litres in the HD but its still slow . 09 model Kwaka ZX-10 would be something to have a glance at if the info i've gotten so far is any good...
Cheers.

I WANT MY BIKE BACK. Bloody interest rates.
The most important part of a bike is to get your suspension set to the rider weight, new springs etc and it will feel unreal. Am I right MUMBO

Yes suspension does make big dif thats why i spent $6000 on ohlins and had one of the best men in bikes set it up.

I had some mixed result mainly to do with the shity weather.
Came 2nd in the B grade race should have one.
In the superbikes had a 5th,4th & 6th made a big gamble on last race went out on wets as the track was damp and looked like it was going to rain.
At 1st it looked like it was going to pay of was up to 2nd but the track was drying out and the tyres started to over heat it became a mater of just trying to stay on.
In the one good dry race got down to 59.3 not bad for 1st race on a new bike still need to make some changes.The crowd did seam to like the power wheelies down the strait thougth & i managed to finnish 5th overal in the superbikes
PS. i am slowly building a new bottem end for mumbo just a 330 as i havnt got the money for a 355 should be ready for the WA powercruize.

Got a friend who owns a bike performance shop, they take off the brake resevoirs and plug the top of the resevoir connecting hose to save weight, to me that is ultimate performance,
Nice photos,
