Re: " X-Mas fairytale "
Very nice i really like the color of the wheels for some reason, it kinda reminds me of VW platinum paint.
Is that an GS motor? You can, though you may have to do some porting and get custom head bolts, put a GSX-R head on one of those, i have a GS1100E motor with a DOT head on it. It's not a runner just an idea for a project one of to many that i can't afford to finance.

Re: " X-Mas fairytale "

Well that's probably it! I didn't stop to think??? Thanks!
I was told I had a GSX but for some reason, the US was the only one not to label it as such.
My bike is a 1982 GS750TZ.

Will you be running in a different class? Or did they outlaw the GSXR in your class because you were murdering all the competition

Different class sofar, incl. i.e. 4-hours " Endurance " Races
The GSX-R was already outlawed in 2011 for the reason that you mentioned, in a different EU competition figting RR/RK's, RC30's and Kwaaks the good results went on & on & on ...
With a total of 4 bikes it will be busy and " throwing the dices " might decide where to go ...
One thing's for sure: I will be missing at work in the office more & more & more ...

Re: " X-Mas fairytale "
Because of the OW01 (Yammie) I thought you paid Marco a visit again, Jeroen has a very good taste aswell
By the way, I found a magazine (Kicxstart) from years ago with Jeroen telling about racing a (street) Bimota which had cost a small fortune back than
Quite a project! (beslist geen half werk)
