I have been out today on the bike, and it is fooking nuts. I had forgot why 2 strokes are so mental. It hits 8000 rpm and goes like a rocket. It was really wierd riding a bike with nil engine breaking.
By God it's fast!

The engine is getting rebuilt in Winter, after I have enjoyed it a bit!

What sort of exhaust system have you got there? Not just the cans but the rest of it?
Looks kinda familiar. Love those salty pepper pot cans

They are Hayabusa calipers, and a radial master cylinder from a GSXR 750. Needless to say it is 100 mph stoppies all round.
Wow, that is one beauty right there! Amazing!
