2006 till now..

[Simon_Ed]

in 06 i sold my 04 r1 to go racing and decided to buy a 1995 rvf race bike..




then after a few more quid...



and a few more....




and now after some more pennys....








Just a massive thanks to Mike Dorey (BMC RACING), Rod Jeacock and Freddy Dunn for all your help in getting the bike looking the bollox and going as well as she looks.... top effort

[CMSMJ1]

Looks lovely that mate! Sold your soul to BMC..love it

Should be at EMRA on the 16th to spectate so I'll come and have a proper look see.

[Drunkn Munky]

Looks a very well sorted bike you got there fella

Spotted the ram air scoop now lets have the rest of the spec

[Simon_Ed]

cheers, well here goes if i remember everything....

Dymags front and rear
Braking Italia front wavey discs
BMC lightweight rear subframe
BMC lightweight rear disc
smaller battery
BMC rear set unit (lighter and more room so i can fit under the screen)
NC30 carbs
quick action throttle
ram air
BMC air scoop
BMC lightweight fuel tank
BMC front mudguard (lighter than standard)
Heads skimmed and ported
Block skimmed
All quietening gears removed
Graeme France link Pipes
MTC exhaust cans (made to measure)
Rick Oliver programmable CDI
Sprint steering damper
Carbon fibre engine casing covers
swingarm cleaned up (rear brake line through swingarm - all lugs ground off)

and i think thats that to be honest.....

As for power, its a shade under 70 but i still need to get a jet kit for it and get the motor refreshed as she's not been touched in a few years so when its all finished i think 72 bhp or there abouts should be about right, as for weight she's shed a lot but having the starter put back she's now approx 153 kg with water,oil and a litre or so of fuel.

All in all worlds apart from the first pic where it was a standard tatty bike weighing a ton

[Drunkn Munky]

Very nice, what system are you using, is it a cut standard system? Didnt realise greame made link pipes for twin stacks, might tap him up a set to convert my yammoto to a twinstack, he custom made the link pipe for my current system and im well impressed with it.

Love the lightweight parts especially the dymags , if your gunna do anything to a NC then making it lighter is surely first on the list

[Simon_Ed]

its just a standard set of pipes yeah, the ram air and twin pipes has made a massive difference to the way the bike performs.

also forgot to say it has a scitsu temp gauge on her too.

[Drunkn Munky]

Thats good to hear ive been toying with the idea of getting ram air and thats a pretty cheap way to get a twin stack too.

Just been checking out BMC's website, £325 for the tank, i dont think thats to bad to be honest, defo getting one in the near future. Would love some dymags but i'll have to sell i kidney to get some.

[Simon_Ed]

the rear dymag i got for £730 and got the front second hand, but they are like rocking horse shit second hand

[royster81]

i really like that simon, health to ride.

doon't forget chris at dynopro racing for link pipes and cans,he did the yammy conversion on mt bike,ring him up and speak wth him sure.

[Simon_Ed]

ring mike at BMC for a price on the twin stacks, he'll do you a good deal and you'll get the straps thrown in too.
