gonna be my racebike for 2010...I'll give you a hint...it's the same year as my CRX
what it looked like when I bought it about a month ago:
what it looks like now, laying paint next week:
...and something similar to what it'll look like by new year's:
anyone care to guess what it is?
picked it up from one of the guys on my BB Endurance team from this past season...he bought it in July, and kept having problems with it overheating, then he wadded it up at a trackday before a race in September (same weekend I had my bad wreck, actually)...I picked it up for SUPER cheap. It had an F2 front end with RaceTech emulators, Penske rear shock, muzzy exhaust, and what we all thought was a stock motor. I've got the motor pulled apart at the moment, turns out it had 1mm over pistons and street grind cams, and was improperly jetted - and damn near burned a hole in the rear piston. I'll have everything back together before the end of the month...it's a LOT less power than my 636 was, but it's a LOT more fun to ride...gonna be a lotta fun to race next year, too!
