    Looks good doesn't it! The CBR400 was my second choice after the FZR400.

    Good to see another one in a good home :)

    Got my ignitions back from Japan, fitted them up and went for a ride through Tamborine and the Numinbah Valley. About time!

    Seems to be Phil. I'd like to get it down for one of those 50 buck dyno runs to see how the mixture is now. That road from Conungra through Beechmont is an absolute cracker.

    Haven't been down that neck of the woods for sometime, but yes it's a cracker. I'm organising to get the zzr600 registered soon, perhaps the bike and rider would enjoy a quick sweep through that area???? the rider says "YES" :D

    $400 Island Relic spotlessly clean,
    inside on the jig,
    Oil dropped, no water found which was good, replaced oil,
    now onto the cooling system next.

    Its all in how you advertise, this is how it came about (Its satire ppl so don't go full pants on head if it offends on poetic license)

    WANTED - Honda cbr250rr mc22 1990....

    Looking for an unlicensed mc22, or you can hand the plates in and ca$h back your rego
    Im not chasing 'The fastest Lams bike', R3's & RC's ride circles around them,
    Am a massive MC22 fan, most dont have 45hp as some dreamers claim unless its had work done, if so I cant afford it,
    Im going hunting 2 Smokes, so don't worry, I'll do the RR crowd proud.
    I am Rossi.

    Not interested in hektic cracked Chinese Repsol fairings,
    and if its got a Tyga kit, torch them with fire,
    it's an old school bike, keep it that way.
    You can keep them and all road gear except fairing supports.
    Consumables like Brake pads, chain, sprockets and tyres not required.

    Frame/swingarm/Forks/wheels must be straight and unmarked, no Stat write off's.
    Must be 1990 plated.
    Dented tank is ok, but not rusted out.
    Engine must be sound and able to be tuned, they are a bulletproof little unit,
    Most are severely munted by 20 noobs and poorly set up..
    Its testimony to how good they were built, "Its a Honda'

    As much as I'd like to get a bargain from some kid who's crack pipe is empty, one that badly neglected is probably too far gone, Or there is someone out there it's owed to.
    If you have what I require to turn into a reliable nice handling, fast, quality P6 Race bike then get in touch on the details provided.
    Price variable depending upon what needs doing to keep it within race budget.

    I once tripped over when running for a piss in the dark and my face is munted too,
    so don't be scared by my appearance if you meet me
    Am in no rush to find "The One".


    Then inundated with exactly the types of bikes I DIDNT want ie overpriced rooted ones with Tyga kits for 2-4k, and some possible candidates I got trolled HARD by some khunt that knows me too well :) ;

    FOR SALE - Hoonda cbr250rr mc22 rocket

    bought this bike on monday, but i joined PSB on tuesday and are now looking to upgrade to a thou. will consider swaps for 2015 yamaha R1M

    these bikes are the fastest lams bike you can buy on your nooby license and i'm only looking to sell as i've out grown the bike and want more power. after getting the bike i put on a two brothers exhaust and it was dyno'd at 105 rwhp. a few extra mods such as a tyga kit, tinted double bubble screen and tail tidy / fender eliminator should see that increase to 120 hp

    did a champions day on tuesday morning and was easily doing 62's but i'm now looking to racing and want a bike capable of 56's. this bike is a small and agile missile and will leave all cars and most other bigger bikes for dead at the lights. it's nimble enough that you will get your knee down after the first corner. i'm sure if i didn't ride in hot pants and singlet, i would have been through two sets of knee sliders by now.

    this bike gets plenty of looks and most people can't believe it's only a 250 when they catch up to me at the next stop sign. it wheelies without effort in every gear and stoppies are also a breeze.

    starts first time every time. the only issue is has some slight 'knocking' in the engine when sitting at idle, but if you rev it hard you can't hear it any more. at 19,000 rpm limit, this bike loves to be ridden hard. also has some minor scratches on the right side from a slow low-side at a round-a-bout as well as a dent on the tank on the left side when i ran wide at went off on a corner on a country run. other than that, the bike is in show room condition.

    tyres have 99% tread left in them.

    great bike to learn on and will not disappoint. minutes of fun to be had before upgrading to your big bike.


    Went viral locally and I got This one, my mate got another,
    so we've two to build in a very short space of time.

    Going to need the brains trust and experience on here.

    Already been stalking... um following you Queenslanders on the bookface.
    Simons been a big help, watched race 1 and 2 so far from the island, even found myself cheering him on haha, jeez he's got coconuts the way he sails over lukey heights and puts a pass on. and ive never even ridden PI, other west aussies say nothing can prepare you for the sense of speed and loading, they say its like our Basin but it never ends.
    I'll soon find out.
    Due to politics the R3 has taken second fiddle in the race build for now, doesn't matter as can do track days on it to stay sharp and throw time at the Honda.

    Who built the Orange trackie on here?, cant find the thread again.
