Bill, any problems shifting with the lever almost straight up and down like that? It looks a bit awkward...
Jim, try to smile the next time Bill takes your pic! ;)

I don't know Mr. Muzzy, but I do have an aluminum canister type muffler with a Muzzy logo, that was attached to a portable welder I bought over 20 years ago. Would this be the same person?

Jimmy will know Juha, he gets it from Livengood motor sports.

Jimmy, did you meet up with Paul Cavanaugh at Commerce? seems he is a mate of Brians at Livengood.

Yes the fuel is VP 4.4 (About $80.00 bucks for 5 gals)

I/We met Paul at the track and was turning some very fast times on his Busa
very nice guy as well as all of the other bike racers we met.
a good mix of mainly street bikes but there was one GS1100 (The same class that Frank runs) was turning some fast times
SP2 RC521 running mid 11s also

Some of the older crowd also came up and was very impressed with the Samauto.
as they haven't seen such a nice example. Plus one that can run mid 12s

Good times just up the street from Bill and I.

Does the shiny extra long oil filter housing help to keep the front wheel down?

Cool Jimmy, Paul posts on another forum that Frank, keith, Jon and I frequent.

Is that about right for an SP2, I would have thought a little quicker, you got any performance specs for it?

Bloody hell Sam, if my wife hears you talking about her like that, she'll have your balls for breakfast ;D

Dave is doing the TT again next year, so I've been concentrating this! Still hope to have it out in May next year though, (I'd better get my finger out)!
