    new grips went on today, so I can finally say its done and dusted. Even took it for quick blat around the block :thumb_ups:

    I don't think I am going to register it anytime soon as I am saving for a holiday, ... this could pay for flights to Japan so here goes nothing... $3650 OBO

    The photos are great but it's even better up close.
    This one and the NSR are best he's done, my humble opinion.
    Well done mate :thumb_ups:

    Do the RTA/blue slippers care if you change the engine of the same model bike to an older version with more hp?

    all good in too NSW:
    ENGINE Item Modification 1 An engine that is not of an original family of engine for the series of models, or any engine more than 20% larger than the largest original optional engine for that series.
    Examples requiring certification: • Replacement of 2.0 litre Honda engine with 2.0 litre Mitsubishi engine. • Replacement of 2.0 litre engine with an engine capacity greater than 2.4 litres.
    Example not requiring certification: • Replacement of a 2.0 litre engine with an engine of 2.4 litres capacity or less and from the same vehicle series.
    http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/documents...ndards/vsi-06-light-vehicle-modifications.pdf

    It's fairly vague though, the above is pretty much stipulating that we can put an mc22 engine in a 2011 cbr250r. I really wonder how far the above rule could be exploited.

    I wonder if you could put a Mc21 engine in an Mc22 because its not 20% larger and its part of the "MC" series etc etc.
    Loop hole your way to 20 extra hp hahaha.

    3600 seems a little cheap.

    We've seen several of these in this condition going for 4K & upwards in our own sales yard on the front page.

    Maybe that's the point but....

    well, after getting it registered , Phil commented the carbs needed a tickle, so I stripped them, cleaned them balanced them and went to go for a ride and ran like a bag of bolts, so I parked it up and had a case of the shits

    Tonight I thought bugger it, I need to find out whats up so I stripped everything down, I found that I have a cracked carb boot which is causing a big air leak, I have some chinesium ones, but am looking for a set of OEM ones for a L model, there are some one ebay for $130 plus post from Tokyo which seems excessive, any ideas where to get some at a decent price ?

    took her for a quick blat tonight, runs quite well.



    I now want to find a Yoshi pipe for it
