"good" is a matter of opinion...its a 90's bike...styling is purely up to you, but its a nice bike, dont make it look like some wannabe-toad-looking-need-for-speed-ricer-pile-of-crap...

Re: Manx GP 400 race
Nice one Cargo.
Ask people who ran in such and such short circuit race 10 years down the line and no-one knows. You'd struggle to find anything written down too. But Isle of Man racing is different, everyone who races there makes history and it's never forgotten. How many books are there out there about racing at Cadwell Park, for example? And how many books are there about racing on the Island? Nuf sed
It's a very special achievement, I'm chuffed for you.

Re: Manx GP 400 race
Thanks guys.
I'll not be racing in the June TT Races ...............absolutely no chance even if they begged me.
I've been offered a genuine Rennsport 500 BMW for the Pre TT Classic races at the end of May in Castletown IOM and I intend to have my 400 back at the Manx GP next year. There is a probability that I'll be looking for a 750 for the all new Classic races at the Manx GP..............more likely that not it will be ZXR shaped 1992 ish
And I'm thinking of trading in my ZRX 1100 for a new 750 Suzuki to do the Senior MGP
One thing is for sure I wont have my current 600...................the cost of repairing it is too high I'll be breaking it and keeping the interesting bits that fit my 400 and flogging the rest

Re: Manx GP 400 race
Cargo,
congratulations - sounds like a great fortnight.
i am hoping to be there again next year and have been looking for some info on classes. Do you have any?
I have the 400 although to be honest I am not sure my 6' 2" frame will cope with 4 laps on that. I was thinking about a minitwin but I already have a zxr750(J) in the garage which with a bit of TLC could be an option.
Anyhow - some info on the classes would be a great help
