so I'm considering racing at NHIS in 2007

[s a x m a n]

i've thrown my RR down the track twice ...it has required less that $200 to repair (man hours is a different story).

[SilverDragon]

well the $10k+ yearly budget is something I do not have. Don't forget the initial cost of the clipons, rearsets and engine case covers.

I'm really thinking the EX might be the best option. As for Dan Murphy's EX, is it already race prepped? If so, I'll buy it tomorrow.

It's an ex penguin bike, I'm sure it's fully safety wired.

Buy it tomorrow, take the penguin school before the June race day, and join growing the EX mafia this year. Why wait? If you've budgeted 2-3k for a race bike you can buy the EX and race for the year for less than that...I've been spending less than $200 per weekend, and most of that is costs you'd spend anyway (food, gate fees) just to come up and spectate.

$10K was including a bike

be an optimist

I keep $20 handy for spare clutch levers.

I don't LIKE to lowside, but I'm getting damned good at it.

yeah, as far as i know, it's all ready to go. Like i said though, the only reason why I didnt buy that one over the one I got was because it doesn't have a penske in the rear... pretty sure it's still stock.

I'll dig up what info i can find on it. I got some when i was lookin to buy it.

EDIT: Ehh... maybe not... musta deleted that PM or email, sorry.

if you would get your ass OFF the seat + hang your body over more along with twisting the throttle a bit more, you wouldn't low side that much!

The sun was in my eyes, there was a horrible flood, locusts, my tux didn't come back from the cleaners...

Oh Jake....Honey.....it's ok

[Dave B]

And that begat one of the greatest chase scenes of all time - right up there with Bullitt and The Great Escape.

Two out of three Steve McQueen ain't all that bad.

Good man. I take back all that crap Pete said about you.

[Hardcore]

two 125s available!!!

HERE!

[SilverDragon]

So far no luck with this guy. He's just asking a bit too much and unwilling to budge on price so far. Looks like the EX is still in the crosshairs.

[SilverDragon]

Also, Pete (or anybody) do you know Dan Murphy's handle on here? I've searched his name but only found posts about him. I'm interested in getting in touch with him.

[OreoGaborio]

He's not on the forum but i think u can get his number from the LRRS white pages. I'll take a look for ya

EDIT: or not... i'll get his number if i see him at the track this weekend though.

Hmmm that looks interesting ......

[Paul_E_D]

The 98 plus spares for 4500 is a bargain. That's a newish machine, and I know the guy is a bit...ahem... easy on the bike shall we say. I don't think it's seen a hard life.

PM me. I have his e-mail. He is probably at the track already, though.

[SilverDragon]

Dan's EX was sold about 3 months ago.. Bah! Still looking! And it still could go either way, ex500 or RS125, depending on my luck finding bikes.
