Hey 400gb'ers

Its been a while since I contibuted much so heres an update on the racing moto.

After lots of this...


The racer has been transformed into a pile of bits for a complete uprate for 2011


And should be feeling all spoilt as a pair of RVF forks have returned from Warrington with some very nice markings on the box


More posts to come

lol - holy shit..that is a pile of bits!

[dx400r]

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!

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.

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

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




A bit of OCD



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

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



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)

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 :)

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
