Had to call it a day, due to tire shredding issues.

Whoa! I was just answering , it was Kevin from XXXPlating who owns the bike and road it.
I wish I could tell you how it feels, 200 was a blast, I can imagine 230 has got to be a mind rush.
It looks like a Trac arm to me ??? I'm sure he will chime in soon.

Fuelpump? It is in the gas tank. it is only a 2 to 6 over and it isnt that low right now. I have about 5 in of ground clearence. This bike is an everyday rider, pot holes, train tracks no problems with any of that. Back brake braket is built in to the swingarm
