Thank you. tangles

pete as i said i havnt been riding, my r date is this week. =]

No probs then. Wasn't having a go ... I've already had a learner rider kill himself on an R1 50m from my house some years ago. Just showing some concern and upholding the law :bunny:

yeah nice bike mate, as roo said its not a good habit to go riding without the approved licence,it sounds like your being sensible though good on you. These days there arent that many riders that actually have experience and keep there road rules in check, the state has had an abundance of young lads going out and getting their bike license,which is great for us fellow riders,except when they decide not to listen to us riders that have been riding for as long as they have been born,we dont need dead riders,the cops already pick on us enough without making us more of a target.

Like others ive had my share at sitting by the side of the road holding somones pieces together,ive had enough of the wahoo guys, ride safe guys and keep it safe for others

Craig, I had to sell my dirt bike some time ago. I just kept busting myself up on tracks and jumps too often. It was worse than crashing at the race track (Mallala) :P

Nice old school KLX (?) you got coming. It'll have some awesome torque for wheelies! Was your previous ride a KX80?

NA KDX, 95 model.

prev. bike was KX 125, that thing was twitchy as all hell, scary at times!

this thing has been bored with bigger piston apparently, so we will see how she goes when it gets here

Yeah you're right ... KLX's and KLR's are 4 stroke. I saw the bike in the pic was a 2 stroke, but knew it wasn't a KX being the road-going version.

KDX ... but its forgiven. I don't like Kawasaki's much :)

BTW ... I thought the 125 had larger expansion chambers? Only reason I guessed it being an 80.

licence:

Full licence (restricted till jan next yr)

years riding:

almost 3

bike(s):

1990 CBR250RR currently for sale

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
