Let me tell you a (short) story... :!:

It's about my bikes engine... :lol:

I started with only an engine....

which was sold to me by an older young man :roll:

who used to be in side car moto cross :wink:

he build a special 25 years ago

with a heavily tuned Kawasaki Z1 engine :!:

but it apeard to be to powerfull :?:

and the engine went out after just 2 races

as it seems, in the fist race a piston was that heavily damaged :evil:

that they had to rebuild the whole engine.... :lol:

so after the other (2nd) race the engine landed in a (heated) shed

and was left there for more than 25 years :oops:

and today I found a picture of that engine still fitted in the sidecar cross machine thing

pictures overhere...

There are some serious mad guys who ride those shitflickers :shock:

Quite a few years back i sold a tuned EXUP 1000 engine that i took out of my YZF750 to a guy who raced Grasstrack Autograss spaceframe cars .
He looked quite normal when he knocked on my door , but over a brew it turned out that he runs two tuned motors in the same car and just wanted a spare engine :shock:

That old moriwaki z1r has been stuck in my mind for years also! :twisted:

Does anybody have a closeup shot of the round tube swingarm on the origional bike with a better view of the shallow under bracing?
Ive got plans to build some stock looking 4130 swingarms using stock axle flanges and brake mounting hardware with 4130 pivot and tubes,but I want to use the same bracing as that arm :wink:
