Kat did 10.4 @ 142 on 3 1/2 cylinders.
Was trying to pull collet grooves out of valves after 'reputable' engine man put gsxr rockers in it during head repairs when probike crank broke.
Moral of story: trust no cnut. ever. always double check.
Was lucky it didn't fly to bits.
8 new exhaust valves on way from states after another clitoris frigged me around for 18 weeks and still didnt supply valves.
Has gone properly for about 5 minutes. Fuck it's fun to ride.
Started drag bike on Tuesday night.
All sweet.
Front end in tomorrow, make a seat and she's ready to test.

Geez mate, your not mucking around. I'm guessing work has been slow this week.

Hi Graeme Kat and Dragbike both look sweet. Thought you were building something for Top Bike, that looks more Pro Bike to me, not that I know anything LOL
When do you plan to hit the track?

Artists impression of finished product, stage 1.
Hi Shayne.
Chassis 80" min long for topbike, max 72" pro.
This one 82".
No tupperware this time.
Just gotta cleanup a couple of things, sit seat on, test stuff.
Heathcote 21 Dec lookin good.
looks great Graeme, give us some stats mate, without givin any secrets away of course always good to see another bike on the track.
GK.
Fuck yeah! Thats awesome mate, cant wait to see what she'l do! Lovin the Kat too...
fucking wicked mate i cant wait to see the results of this

Chassis: old budweiser(?) kwaka turbo topbike chassis.
Checked alignment, cut out old engine mounts and make new t/s suzuki.
dedagged, rear wheel hoop, seat mount, graft in 750 gsxr front end, make and mount 'wheel tub' and ancillary equipment 'pod'.
sandblast. painted it last sat/sun.
Engine: 1428. currently set to 14.2:1 cr. gsxr750 head 30/26mm ss. valves.flows 125 cfm at 10"=218 hp. ceramictop pistons/ whet sides.
polished oem crank w/. falicon knife edge rods, slider clutch, 5 spd auto. air shift.
when i do a 8.5/145 with a <1.20 60' it gets a decomp plate and some wind up it's arse. then i want a 6 sec quarter. 6.99 is fine!
not having used a slider clutch before may prove a challenge. I'm not past rippin the locker clutch out of the kat, yet.
6 months plan/ collect/ 'pre-assemble' all come together in about 4 days. gives me half a chubby and I can't wait to take it for a snort.
arh there it is, was looking a bit short there for a minute!
Makes for a quicker build no plastic to fit and paint, looks lower them some of the other Kwaka bikes. Heard yesterday one of the old Party Time bikes is coming out to play soon.
Cant wait to see you race it!
