Hey Shayne,
I take it that your name sake has decided to update. Nice score mate. When you next speaking to the previous owner, send my regards.

Will do Jarrod, he will be a big help setting this bike up. He actually scored a ride on someone elses bike, that would be a nice way to go. Ride it and if something breaks they pick up the bill.

Boh, will proberly go for a stock 1127 for now, but still have all the bits for the turbo system for it. Will end up 1216 turbo which should be good. Yeh i think the Fool Injected stickers suit me too.
Yeah Tony its the same bike, i couldnt pass up the deal and let it go.
Its a bit of a budget build this one, turbo busa motor is out of reach for now, anyway 1 turbo busa is enough i reckon.
Getting the 8.5in rear tyre to hook up without breaking stuff will be a interesting task.

The artwork on this bike is amazing, as good as alot of show bikes which is unusual for a race bike

Front guard is a bit hard to photograph but is really good.

let me know if i am out of line but i am curious as to what sort of money a second hand rolling chassis like this one goes for?
type of chassis and age too?
hey Shane, I liked the comeandsuckme stickers, also the fool injected
:D:D
Nice bike, is this going to become an outlaw bike?
ozkat
10-03-2008, 07:02 PM
Ozzy he works for Repco now out your way, shouldnt be to hard to track him down ;)
Jay_G i wont say what i paid for it but a roller like this could cost as little as 2.5K or as much as 10k. There are a hell of alot of good dragbikes sitting in sheds around Australia doing nothing. You just have to find them. A good start if your interested would be to go to www.dragbike.com.au There are lots of blokes there who would be more than willing to help anyone interested. (sorry about the blatent plug :D)

HAHAHA the comeandsuckme stickers are long gone. I still have the outlaw 1100 which will be put away till both the busa and the katana are finished. I cant run the Kat in outlaws due to wheelie bars, 10in rear rim and heaps of other mods.
have you got that engine in yet or what? only 18 days to go...nice purchase mate.
