500 Two-Stroke Tech

Just checked. It was Straycat that posted the custom jackets that I wanted. It was less than 2 years ago, so you guys might want to compare price/quality/options with another source.

Thanks to bolly and Jeff B for posting the jacket stuff. I remember seeing a pic of a bunch of custom jackets with someone's bike collection. Super cool, and I've wanted a custom jacket since then. Too much to deal with, and I just forgot about it. Until now! The bike-related designs are cool, but I...

I imagine there are a few different shops in the same country making these as I don’t recognize that particular name. Was just surprised to see the name of Bill Wilson's company on the jacket in the ad. He's a mechanic in the states that specializes on the RZ500. Maybe Bill bought a custom jacket, ...

Wilson Performance Jacket???

I think his last post was about 2 1/2 years ago.

He had over 2,300 posts on this site, and may have been the most knowledgeable person on the planet, with regard to the RZ500.

Someone has to know what happened.

Probably should have asked long ago, but what happened to jackson.40?

Haven't seen a post from him in years. Sad.

There are some great fabricators out there, doing amazing things.

Actually, these pipes are one of the least amazing things about this bike.

Hi, Alex! Somehow, I missed this thread until just now. I have been following your amazing progress on the YZR500, and the other custom work shown on that website. Am I correct that each of the 4 builders will get 1 bike? I think it's the greatest custom bike ever built. Thanks for posting more info...

Smoker, Theres a killer post at KiwiBiker with a bunch of current and former 2T tuners discussing tuning commuter bikes into kart track racers. The software used and being developed is EngMod2T. If you start at the last page and work backwards 100 pages you will know enough to make your brain hurt....

I wanted to post Mick Abbey vs. Brian Turfrey, but couldn't find any video of BT. https://video.search.yahoo.com/video/play;_ylt=Awr49.siiuhlpfkBJCq3mWRH;_ylu=c2VjA3NyBHNsawN2aWQEZ3BvcwMy?p=Mick+abbey+pipes&vid=e729d7eb19d7d4fe0dd1129c872a8598&turl=https%3A%2F%2Ftse1.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3D...

Looks good.

Jay's celebration of life will be at The Pavillion on Summit road in Los Gatos on March 23rd. The XJ500 will be there and Lex said he has every intention of starting it. Haven't spoke to him lately about the bike. He's supposed to pick it up toward the end of Feb. More is posted on the RZ/RD 350 site.

Hey, Tom-

Ax-Racing's account has been hacked. Please note the new bogus thread, and that a link has been placed in his signature that is showing on many of his old posts.

Please help!!
