Hey guys. as benz will agree I have a Gsxr cosman chassis for sale. full roller with some other goodies added in. It has been an australian champion and is still hard and fast. We want 4g's for it as a roller and 8 as a turn key. I will try to get some pic's up of the roller will see what I can do. If you go to www.hiddenvalleydrags.com it's in the top right hand corner of the page. and I think there are a couple of pics of it in the gallery. I'm selling it for a mate as he has run out of room in his shed . The 7 sec beastie is taking up all the room. I'm just checking interest now and can discuss options later.

Ok will re-send the mail with all th e low down on the Kath trip.
Yeah this is my mates bike. That I was looking at putting the busa motor in but there was too much stuffing around. so just going to go insane in the stock chassis and then stretch it. So this little beat is up for sale. I'll get a full run down from Scoty as to her pedigree and stats. Not sure about the engine I think close to the mid 8's with a 3 spd auto box is the fitment.

Bike was originally built by Sandy Kosman,for Gavin Spann,to race in pro stock in aus,pro bike at that time had to run a original cradle,
Kosman modified this,but replaced the steering head with a c/moly piece,at a subsequent aussie nats at calder park,the bike was voted out by the other pro riders for not having a frame no on the headstock,(Scotty being one of the other riders,i think he was ridding Darrell Nuss,s pro Katana)the bike was allowed to race after that with much paper work from usa to andra,sold to Angelo Ganitis of RBD in Melb,then onto paul ? (cant think of the name)then on to Scott.Kind of ironic!still a really good frame and well ahead of some of the bikes at the time.
might have to look at it myself.

Yep thats right.
Well she is just sitting in the corner waiting paintently for some one to love her. As Scotty is tied up with the new one and hoping to go harder this year and secure the new ecord. Apperently to get that record we have to Run at an ANDRA approved track. which means brissy for us low lifes. can't do it here on our nice smooth track. L if yah wannn have as quiz at her get in touch. Scotty is getting back to me about the engine he is putting together for it too.

Sorry about the double up.

As it sits It looks like the engine has sold so now just the roller. With some bits like the offset drive plate. and brand new drag pipe.
