Still going to Maxton !!

Been working on the 250, getting her ready. May go after some records then try & sell it to an up & coming "small" LSR newbie or just stuff a EX500 motor in there and see what it will do.

Both the boys just about have their 14's ready.

Who else is gonna be there?

Bike looks great! I really like those little 250's. I don't expect us to be there; good luck to all.

Bike looks great. Can you really run without front brakes?

On a bike of that speed potential, yes.

When I rode the bike at Maxton I went through the traps and never touched the brakes to be able to make the short shut down. It's not hard to get stopped when you are only going 111mph.

Dan, I love the Tank! I am just about Wore out on Working on "CARS"!! BUT I know that the more time I spend on them the Sooner I will be finished! I am hoping to put a wrench to a "Motorcycle" at least by JULY. The good news is one of the bikes will be my ZX12R which I can finally do all of the things I have been waiting to do like notching the cylinders inside of 1 & 4 and the Outside of 2&3 and putting a hole or two in the cases. You know how I enjoy my expirements

:

Ken, there are 2 - 1/2 mile turn outs so you have up to a mile to get stopped and no longer have to go through a Sand Trap in the middle of Long Shut Down
