Sorry people but i need something good to read on here and hopefully this thread will lead to some good storys.
So come on spill ya beans what are you building or finishing off to race in 2011, there must be some good stuff out there nearly ready to go. ?
My list.
1st bike.
YZ 250 G this thing is going to get a complete makeover including frame re-paint, new rims, re-plated spokes, engine strip down and check up, spend some hours on the tank and then fit new stickers to it, fresh rubber front and rear, re-gas rear shock and fit a fat prick spring to it. That should do this one as it is a fairly tidy bike anyway, it will end up a very clean standard looking race bike.
As purchased 2003

2nd bike.
YZ 250 89 model, i bought this thing in January 2010 and have only got the frame finished, all bolts re-plated, bottom end of engine is fresh, still need to finish painting the swingarm, new rims, re-plate spokes, fresh rubber front and rear, freshen up top end, some porting to barrel as it is shocking, re-assemble and fit all new plastics which is sitting in cupboard and all the usual finishing off required.
As purchased Jan.2010
I can`t wait to race this thing as it has an Ohlins 360 top end on it and should really get up and go, this year i only managed to do 1 race meeting which is just bullshit. Plan is to be at every Viper round in 2011 no matter what is going on at work, that shit will still be there on the Monday.
