Previous owner blew the motor, stocker in at moment, am going to get her painted some when,time season permitting.
The handlings really good very stable mid turn. Going Angelsey again on 17th march will have a mess around with suspension settings this time seems a bit firm for me at the moment, any tips are very welcome. Just got to get used to the power delivery, and get on the gas sooner. lol

thats a bit of a mish mash, i mean that in a nice way, you got the spondon frame and rearsets, which is from the honda britain race team as is the clocks. although its missing the spondon swingarm/harris rear caliper/race rear subframe/ pfm front brakes and dymags wheels.
then you have the tank which is probably mori but as kev says its minus the ram air system.
i imagine its still a very nice track bike tho..... :thumbup:

I'm planning to manufacture some braced frames with the lower extension welded on, and with mounting points for early Blade rearsets, as they're common and cheap.
It could be on an exchange frame basis; the one I'm starting with is legit and has a logbook and numberplate, so could be used for a road bike.

But how much would be a reasonable figure for a modified frame?

Otherwise I could manufacture the extension plates; they'd just need to be bolted up and then welded on; don't see why that couldn't be done with the engine still in the frame, maybe with rear subframe unbolted....I'll have to play about and see.

Any comments as to how much people would pay for plates alone?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

as for the ears i could have them welded on for £40-50
rear sets £50
so i would pay no more than £60 for the ears :D
