:DHowdy,
Tony Here...dumb ass accountant...I have a Suzuki GSXR 750w 1993 which I recently purchased with the intention of (as well as burning up the streets) doing up and also racing in the East Coast race series and PCRA new era class bikes 1990 - 1995.
Should be good as I have had a licence for over 30 years but havent ridden since late 70's. Something I wanted to do earlier but got waylaid. Anyway Love my bike and am starting to feel comfortable on it ..except for right hand turns...but that will come..luckily most turns at oran park are lefties.
now thats about me and what I am after is a few things which I will post in the right forums.
Fantastic to be on board
Tony:)

Yep, you even spelled "newbie" wrong mate. You'll fit right in! Welcome aboard. There's a few guys that are in that race series here if I remember rightly. They will steer you in the right direction.

Hi again,
Deano if you have same bike can you steer me in the right direction to get seat cowling/cowl and am also looking for race glass fairings for the bike..cant find anyone who makes race fairings for my bike.
Keep an eye out I'll be the guy at the back of the pack for a long time..the bikes great but i'm the handicap.

u may be in luck. i got moulds for race glass in the shed. gota dust them off and do a set for myself and my mates 94 740 aswell.

as for the cowl mate just replace it all with glass. alot lighter.

my track bike was down to as little as 172kg in its day. it has porked up a bit as its got older but keep in mind there is lots of weight to loose on this model and weight is horse power.

and don't worry you wont be alone i will be battling with you at the back of the pack
