Why two strokes

Many of you (?) may be asking yourselves why I choose to race two stroke bikes when a good torquey four stroke would be more appropriate for someone of my size (and weight). Well if your bored, have a read of this guys thoughts on 2 strokes - interesting to say the least.

Last modifications finished

Well, not much news really. My list of things to do is finished except putting on my numbers. I have put stops for the steering which prevent the levers touching the fairing - so it should get through scrutineering, plus the catch bottles are done - I ended up putting the radiator bottle in the fairing, and a couple of smaller bottles picking up the residue that comes out of the carbs. (hmmmmm...) All the lock wiring has been done - mental note to make a tool to avoid breaking the 1.5 mm drill bits I have been using! I have made a curved gear lever which will prevent any interference with the gear rod, and finally I changed the handlebar grips, which was a cock up, as the throttle has small plastic ridges on it to prevent the grip slipping off and the ones I bought did not fit....Anyway it got nice carbon look alike bungs in the ends of the clipons....

Just waiting for the first race which will now be at Crois-en-Ternois the weekend of the 10/11th May.
