That is a fast lad called Sam Hornsey who races with my club. His bikes are fast....he is a young lad, 16/17 I think and has some speed.

Have a look on the EMRA racing site, check some of the results pdf files - his laptimes are bloody good..so that might be worth a punt!

He had some other bits I was after, his zorst and some loose odds and sods for my spare bike.

Seems like an alright fellow. I may change my mind when I receive me box of pieces. But I doubt it. :grin:

Sam and his dad Mark both race the CBR's.
Top bits of kit, very fast, Mark was one of RLR's main sponsors and Rick did all the engine work on those bikes.
Mark has bought a 450 and Sam is doing BSB 125's next year thats why he is selling up on the CBR's.
Top fella's.

Whose pistons do you use? I thought Honda didn't make +1 sizes?

I'm curious on this myself, the rings he had were Yamaha rings (although I've seen intercahngeability on rings between manufacturers on other bikes). Those pistons looked to have much shorter skirts than anything I have seen out of anything from the 90's.
