    Hello fighter friends.
    This wonderful brethren took a down hill for me and many others when the major change over happened some years back.
    All the pzazz seemed to fall out as all the new tech happened, now the photo-bucket fiasco is not a good addition.

    As other brothers have mentioned I too have made some great mates and met some awesome and not so awesome people and learned a lot from this ASF wonderment devised by Si, thank you for that mate.

    My family conditions have recently changed and have now an even bigger shed so will be getting my build on again in the near future as I will have a lot more build time on my hands.

    So Ill be back on the ASF line once again.

    Also got a GSX14 that may come under the hammer but I'm thinking a GSXR1000 might be my next addition.

    A bloke on the NSW south coast built a couple of RGVs back in the day, with BSA Lightning Twin powerplants...

    https://books.google.com.au/books?id...50 bsa&f=false



    Suzuki RGV 250 with seat tank exhausts etc built by me, the motor has norton crank 90degee 818cc at the moment, std profile cam Jaguar shortened valves 44.5mm and 40mm. 38mm modified TM mikuni flatslides I did a roller conversion with a straight large needle roller on the t/side and an extra ballrace in a plate mounted outboard of the alternator to control end float. I made patterns and had an alloy cylinder cast, and if ever I can get the machining on it finished it will take displacement to 884cc. This link is an acceleration curve recorded on it's veypor data logger for 1st & 2nd gear(C/R), and RPM graph of the same run.

    I'm still here & have never stopped supporting as you know Si even though I couldn't even log on for the last few years. Now you sorted that social media link bullshit at least I can see whats going on. Over the last few years my business has changed greatly & that's in no small part due to your efforts Si for which I am eternally grateful, I'm also keen to get this forum back up to where it should be & will support you however I can.

    You're a good man Ben, ...and Chris, you're just mental (which I like).

    I'm smack bang in the middle of time consuming projects again, but hopefully I will hear from sen at some point and try and move things forward again. Supporters are dropping like flies and it's going to be a long steep climb to try and get interest back.
