Yup I felt kinda bad actually... left in bits while the FZS600 gets all the action. Poor thing.

Latest developments...(yes pics are coming) Edit - Added some!

:arrow: The old road engine got sent to Mike @ BMC back in September to weave his magic into it. It should be coming along in the next few days now.

:arrow: Landed some Harris Clipons..finding out the hard way that RVF and VFR clipons are VERY different sizes :( - Anyone wanna buy em off me?

:arrow: Some goodies from Jap4 landed - some quality fairings to start the year with

:arrow: A bit of OCD :grin:

Image

:arrow: The Nitron NTR has gone off home to Nitron to get some servicing. On its way back to me tomorrow.

:arrow: Lots and lots of cleaning. Swinger, Frame, everything.

Image

:arrow: NG being a load of front bottoms and dropping the normal F400 in 2011 and turning it into Open 450 (so far as I can derive)

:arrow: Assembed the RVF front end with the NC30 adapter kit - 400GB'ers... there doesnt seem to be much steering lock to lock on it - Mike said something about new lockstops being needed. Anyone care to share what they did?

More stuff to come :)

Re: DX4 - Race Bike Thread - 2011 NG Cadwell Footage Posted

Post by dx400r » Sun Jun 12, 2011 2:18 am

Hi All,

Have just finished the video of Round 3 of my race at Cadwell Park with NGRRC. While you can watch it in the form post I highly recommend you click this link so you can watch the proper fullscreen HD version on youtube properly.



Let me know what you all think. I know there isnt a whole lot of my bike in it, but that came down to a lack of usable footage so try and enjoy the vid as a whole ;). Anyway Enjoy!

Cheers,
Dx4

Makes me want to find a track... Sepang, anyone? :whistle:
