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.....

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
