So nice.

 

LWT weapon! GLWS

 

Yeah it is. I put fresh fuel in and took it for a ride down the street and it wanted to go! I got to run the #6 and then #7 number plates on this bike at WSMC! I would love to see a truly fast rider on it to really see what it can do.

 

LOVE this bike. GLWS,

 

Someone race this at NJ in 2 weeks! Or buy it and race Barber with WERA and I’ll deliver it to Barber for you! (After payment clears of course)

 

Great, fast bike! I remember trying to catch you on my SV while you were riding at the Big Track and Streets! Cheers!

 

Spares no longer include +1 jugs and pistons. Price lowered to $8,500 as a result. Also, I’m bringing it to NJ next weekend with a for sale sign if anyone wants to check it out in person.

 

This bike is ready to grid up and run up-front. Want it at GNF? Give me $8,000 and I'll deliver it there!

 

Wow Al, I haven’t seen you post in a long time. Welcome back!!!

@Monsterdood what’s your name, and how fast did this go at Willow?

 

I raced there 05-10. I usually keep my name off the beeb to avoid incrimination by association! Lol… but it’s Chris Sp8s. My best big Willow time was a 29 flat but I would love to give it another crack especially after the upcoming repave.

 

I think I’ve heard that name but don’t know if we have met? That’s moving out there. Yea I would expect the records to drop now.

That looks like Cycle Mall team colors, did you run for Tige and James? Did you race with Gags or Jason Z?

 

Gags and I did new racer school together along with Eric Andersen who is teaching at SBK School now.

And yeah, Tige and James setup my suspension and bike and I ran Cyclemall colors. I had just moved to CT right when Tyler started running out there.

 

OK, then I guess we didn't meet? I think Tyler ran in 2011 out there on the SV and probably 2010 on the RS125. Eric is a good guy too. I did a SoCal Supermoto school with him at Grange and we had a great time, StuMan was our instructor.

 

Bump, $8,000 obo

 

I’ll do $7,500 or $7,000 without the OZ front wheel, just the ZX-6R front wheel.
$7,000 for a bike that was $25,000 to build is a great deal. Any less and I might as well part it out.

 

Still for sale. Ready to grid up at Daytona in 10 weeks. I can probably help with delivery as long as you’re East of Denver. This bike would be great for WERA endurance, sprints or MotoAmerica Twins Cup.

 

Bump. Need a little cash to fund my 2024 season, so help a brother out how about it!

 

Bump
