Looking good mate. Be an impressive bike once you get it together..though as we all know it will never be finished will it?

Always something else.... You should get Mike Ruehl to sort you out some injection kit and settings.....

I might even make the trip down to brands for the first meeting seeing as im going to miss out racing there. Be good to have a nosey round the bike.

Sadly efi isn't allowed in bmcrc f400, although I have no idea why.
A fully kitted 400 with efi and all the electrikery would be the absolute shizzle, traction control, launch etc.. Tits!

As said injection isnt allowed in our series, in 2006 a zxr400 was built with injection + many people saw the class would have issues with people moving clubs due to the cost to get an fi system working well so rule was brought in to only allow fi if originally fitted

Had a few hours today + altgough I didnt get much actual bike building done I pulled swingarm + shock etc out to properly clean it all + the frame, re-assembled it all + its looking much much better
Also trimmed off chain guard tabs + fitted shorter rear brake line to suit my over mounted rear caliper
Subframe fully trimmed up + ill get that painted tomorrow

Dont i know it, its ok though im like this every season, i always say 'next season will be different' but i think i thrive on the busy factor :)

will be ok though, thankfully what im doing for work now is 6.30am - 2.30 pm which gives me a few hours each day although last few days plans have gone to pot + havnt been able to, tomorrow though is garage time
