The yellow one is the best conversion ever seen!

Both are spot-on!

Gosh I'm blushing!!!
Seriously though, the help and comaraderie on this forum is fantastic. That's where all the ideas come from.

Well it's been a while, but just a few update pics. A bit of suspension and engine work, R1 switchgear, some paint, gold wheels just like Kenny's look great I think. A bit of carb and filter work done, just need to finish it off on another dyno visit. Getting there.

Hi Aaron, Yes Collide a Scope. I've used them quite a bit and their quality is very good. They are just up the road from me which helps also.

Hi Graeme, thanks for the comments. Couldn't make it to the Island this year to get my annual dose of hypothermia. I was just across the ditch in Hobart (work committment), but what a day for the Aussies 3-2-1!!
I'll be back next year though..........

Cheers Ronnie

Christ knows what he was on at PI.
Laxatives!! Maybe he was busting and put the hammer down. Hope he doesn't prove positive for anything at PI, if indeed he was tested.
