So ... what can we do to it??

Neons?? (actually considering it hahahaha)

anyways, its a red Vmoto Milan.. very funky! I got it up to about 70km an hour today. Feels like your going alot faster though. Should beable to get it up to about 80km/hr. My new baby is tucked away nice and safe inside the house at night.

watch those things tho. My bro got one, brand new, and the engine died after two weeks. It might not be under warranty too because somewhere in the fine print it says that for the first 1000k's you cant do more than 50km hr and it needs a service @ 300km. If you just bought it new i wouldnt go 70 in it

theres a more blokey version costs about $400 on the road.

and to get it up to 110, u can get the pistons bored out and the cat drilled. Guy at work has had it done to one.

mmm not bad. problem is strapping a stock r33 turbo would be like strapping a t88 to a suzuki cupachino. :burnout:

Yeah ive read the small print, not allowed to full throtle before first service... but.. ahh.. new toy.. put it this way... u just get the keys to ur new skyline... "you cant go over 80".. of course you dont do that for the first few days. Ill behave myself! Today driving it i stayed about 50-55. Wont be long untill ive done 400km for first service though, already up to 180.

Might be a bit awkward in a couple of months time

hopefully i'll have some wheels by then. so kyles will get the car and i'll have to take the scooter to the choochoo station. seeing i only work 2 days shifts each week it works out fine.

oh and i mean the blokey version was an extra $400 on the road compared to kyles one, my bad.

Because of winter?

Well.. i figure .. each winter, we get less and less rain. And when it poors down, its only for 10 or so min..

I rode today in the rain. Was fine. Came home nice and dry. The bike wasnt much different either. Just had to be a bit more carefull :cheers:

Yeah.

Just watch out for cars, they tend not to see bikes or just don't care

Yeah, in such a small vehicle, you've got zero road presence, and many drivers don't watch out for you.

I was looking at buying a peugot scooter before I got the line, but when I took one for a test drive and was nearly run over by a 4WD, I decided I needed something bigger :cheers:

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
