    Heheh <lifts the forks in J5's direction> :)

    So when are you going to build one out of that pile of RGV bits in your
    shed ? I'm sure there's gotta be a way to source oversized two stroke
    motors somewhere (that one's out of a snowmobile as I recall, but what
    about those jet bike / water bike thingys (whatever they're called) ?
    I'm pretty sure they run large capacity smokers ?

    I've been thinking a CR500 engine in a 250 sports frame (CBR500RR anyone
    ?) would be cool (but I don't have enough time to do something about the
    bikes I've got so that ain't gunna happen any time soon.)

    if only i could build one like that ;)

    I reckon CR500 would be a great way to go in one , pity the tank is so small
    though ;)

    yeh prob snow mobile , they are thirsy fuckers too 40 gallons in a days
    worth of snow mobiling

    At the bike show Kawasaki had a 1500cc 4 stoke 4 cyl in a jet ski 160 Hp @
    7500
    seems to me just the thing to have in a small car ;)

    Just bought 2 more RGV's last week
    1 91 model track bike running $500
    1 90 model minor assembly required just like ikea $350 :)

    JL
    (alright I'll bite - email me directly to talk about purchase of one as
    a track bike, I'm sure as the owner of a dozen you can spare one)

    Yeah - it'd probably go a bit faster yet if he could fit a bit more of
    the fairing over that expansion chamber - although it'd look like it
    had a hernia on the right hand side! ;-)

    Fark! You're a sick puppy Glen. I'm glad you're not into RZ500s or
    there'd be none of the bastards left...

    Maybe it just needs some Metamucil in the tank... to get rid of whatever's
    blocking it up...

    not for a price that you would like to pay and would rather not sell to
    people
    that I know as they can be grenades waiting to go off

    keep an eye out in the trading post they pop up every now and again
    and if you need parts you know where to find me

    yep or a 400 would suit you very well (cheaper on tyres as well)
    will find something setup and track ready with spares like stands , wheels
    etc

    or another option is to find a setup trackbike that includes road gear so
    you can have both
