Re: Final KR Based Race Bike Project
The consensus seems to be favouring the last one Paul, so I'll go with that scheme when I get it done.
Can't wait for this project to finally start gathering pace. it's been going on too long for my liking.

Funny you should say that Andrew, I did try that, but preferred ACU number boards.Bertie_Mollie wrote:I like it Ben.

That looks shit hot
What about the EXCEL graphics bigger font and starting low near that scoop and going up the fairing at a 45 deg angle? The EX could be black on white and the rest white on black

Re: Final KR Based Race Bike Project
I'm sticking with the ACU 250 number boards, as this bike is still eligible to compete in the F250/F400 class if I run on treaded tyres.

Re: Final KR Based Race Bike Project
Getting my rear shock back on Monday, so will have the rolling chassis back together Monday and will be able to drop the engine in
Photos to come Monday or Tuesday depending on what else I have going on.

That will be interesting to see how it develops.

Re: Final KR Based Race Bike Project
waited in all day today for my shock and it never turned up. Phoned Firefox for a tracking ID for ukmail and it doesn't resolve to anything, so I'm now praying its not been lost. I can't exactly just get another! Not very happy at the moment.

Re: Final KR Based Race Bike Project
My shock finally arrived back from Firefox, although not quite how I wanted the hose, but it will do.



At least I'm able to get the engine in and out of my way.
Next jobs are to start work on the fibreglassing and carbon fibre bits and bobs.
