... There's not a lot of movement on the forum anymore, but there are a few of us who still look and respond to posts.

Dave

I just made a large post here, but it was lost because I took too long. Oh well

Okay, let's go racing!

It's never that easy, and what I'm proposing exceeds everything that has been done in AU on a sit on bike on salt.

So let us start here:

I picked this seriously munted low km monster a while ago. And this is the starting point,

My only comment on their question, how can a little Italian company contest with a big Japanese giant, well they did allude to it in the article, but, simply stuff the big japanese giant's motor into your sweet lightened and stiffened chassis. Yep that was the idea! Bimota essentially invented the ...

Here is a comparison by superbike magazine of my two favorite bikes!

The second image loss appears to be a flurry of broken links to images hosted on third party solutions such as photobucket/flickr/picasaweb/etc. This one I need to look into further as I don't really know what I can do to restore links to broken or defunct image hosting sites (I think Spook might h...

Thanks Guys, I appreciate the kind words, and thoughts. All the very best to you all. Cheers.

I'll be looking after Mum, not a happy time, Dad died on Monday. He was 96, so a good innings, doesn't make it any easier though, especially for Mum... 66 years of being happily married.

All the best to all my forum buddies, for Christmas and the New Year, Cheers!

Okay... this one is finished took it for a ride, and bloody hell!

It's the first bike I've ridden with an exup valve fitted, and it makes a very noticeable difference the engines character, especially how it pulls from low rpm.

Edit try this one....?

I remember the 1st time I saw a Bimota, it was a brand new YB10 Dieci (FZR1000 motor) and I was just in awe at the RAW CRAFTMANSHIP...PURE ART!!! Damn right! After a year of not being so well, (back surgery, blood-clots, recurring blood-clots, staph infection, lung scaring..) I'm finally getting ba...

no, sorry mate, not here. If you have a repack kit, it should have rivets. measure the outside diameter of the new rivets, and use a new good quality (cobalt) drill bit to drill the head off down to were the remaining stem is. Get a tapered punch (needs to be a slightly smaller diameter than the ste...

Jason is getting them through the dealer, so there will no difference in price.

The Kwaka parts on the other hand are about 1/2 the price of Yamaha, for the same sort of item... go figure?

Con-rods have been resized, each available bearing size was purchased and plasti-gauged. We have settled on a size, and ordered bearings for the remaining 3 rods. Unfortunately they don't have stock locally, so they are on their way from Japan. I've updated the photo's FB deleted, and will have some...

I'll get moving on this lol. They will be words of joy to Jason's ears, but the truth is we are close to engine assembly. I'm still working on the rods, but not far away. Once that job is done, it is just assembly. The delimer regarding the oil pump-alternator drive could not be resolved without the...

This build is still on the go. I'll update photos and progress etc, shortly.

I've been thinking about 2 strokes! :shock: The ATK 700 intimidator engines are available to purchase stand alone from ATK in the USA. 700cc 78 rwhp. Chain and kick start on the same side as the Husaberg 501 so a relatively easy fit up? The 501 engine makes 52 hp, so that will probably be enough to ...

Michael, I'm a bit in love with this one! Im hoping to have some mad fun on it! JasonL who gets on here occasionally was over on the weekend to watch a bit of the F1.... he now has motocross eyes! Another mate has just registered a KTM 250 two-stroke. The adventure touring-weekend away gig is defini...

I picked this one up for not much money. It's a Husaberg FE501E 2001. It's the newest bike in my shed! :lol: It's not running, but I think it is something simple. It needs the normal going over, fork seals, shock service, fluids, check everything. It has massive compression. It will have to take a b...

Yep, they are are thoroughbred race bike, pretending to be a road bike
