holy hell, that r7/r1 is awesome! any problem with the superbike forks weeping oil past the seals?
duderman, i see you have a set of brembo billet four pots and a set of ap six-pots. can you tell me which you prefer? how's the quality between the two?
my old college roomie has an obsession with tz350's.

Re your project for the Moriwaki Kawasaki F1
Part of the post classic racing scene in australia is forgotten era racing, for machines specced to end of 1980. I lined up a purchase of a bike many years ago: the moriwaki replica made by tony hatton, famous aust racing id: to roger quinlan, famous forgotten era guy. bike was built in 78 i think, for graeme crosby. he then raced it at a number of event incl the french endurance races ie-the bold'or. it is a ridgy didg bike, as raced in the era, incl 38mm forks i think off the z650 series i think. it was raced with a monoshock as well as twin shocks in the era. nowdays it is raced only with monoshock setup and modernish wheels (4.5inch rear) and recently won the barry sheene 2008 memorial historic racing at eastern creek raceway, against tz750 and P/M kawasaki riders, with better laptimes than yzf750s on the same weekend - yes, up to 1995 bikes arenow historic, so we are racing fzr1000s, zxr750s, tz250s yzf750-600-400s etc.
anyway, getting back to the mori: i had the chance to ride this bike at eastern creek myself and i have to say it was the sweetest handling bike i had ever ridden in historics. coming from a tweaked cb1100r, this thing handled awesome: well balanced, just throw it into corners, slide it through and slide it out. perfect feedback.
that's not me on the bike by the way.
Are you drooling yet? :cool
ahh, and just to claim more fame: I raced against graeme crosby!! no, really! at the 1996 New Zealand historic tt, he had his 1980model heron F1 suzuki rebuilt and was doing laps in the race, coming just in front of me in race 1: check it out::::
