Found the door....Hi!

Post by pugwash »

How do.

Just in the door so thought I'd say hi.

Mate off the PB forum suggested a poke around in here as I'm going through yet another round of fettling of my poor long suffering 5PW track slag and reckons you are a good bunch of lads.

Spec as follows....

Engine - head ported and flowed with some race cams (unknown make), PC3 and modded ram airbox - 162bhp and 84lbs/ft torque.
STM slipper clutch.
Full Akrapovic stainless system, Harris hanger.
Ktech 25 cartridge forks.
Ohlins rear with remote adjuster.
EBC front discs, SBS dual carbon pads, Brembo 19RCS master cylinder and braided hoses (fierce).
Robby Moto Engineering adjustable yoke and fork clamps.
Euro Racing QA throttle.
Ohlins steering damper with Harris yoke type bracket.
Harris rearsets.
Brembo rear master cylinder to standard rear caliper.
Ex Virgin fuel tank.
-1/+2 geared on Renthal sprockets and DID X-ring chain.

Might be 14 years old but can still party hard with the young guns.

The bane of message boards - how the f**K do I post a picture. :lol:

Tried using the image tabs and posting link directly and both failed.

Any tips chaps?

Had a look at Flickr and the links and I can't find one that works , as said above try post image , I resize to 17inch monitor and use the "direct link" then when you've pasted the king rehighlight it and click on the image code
To see how I've done it just click on the quote button on this post

Right. Tried that and still doesn't work.

That's the only one I can get to work.

That's from just after the rebuild.

It's now wearing powder coat black wheels and the nice gold EBC disks.

The R1 decal on the shoulder has been swapped for a smaller one.

You'll just have to imagine as I'm about to put a claw hammer through this PC

There's also a nice wee FZR600R foxeye for riding around on the roads.

90's carbed 600s on sunny days are the biz.

Oh and the ASBO collecting TM SMX 660F supermoto which is the angriest motorcycle ever produced.

It's an abusive relationship. When it's not trying to kill me outright, it throws bits of itself around in protest. Coming to the end of Park straight at Cadwell to realise the brake lever pin has fallen out is a bit of an attention getter.
