VFR400 Ground-up

[scottieducati]

$300 *per piston*??? I doubt it cost more. I do know he moved on and got a job w/ Kawi's US outfit.... or last I knew.

It probably cost a lot more than he let on and someone came to collect...

And Doc, I've raced a Hawk, been there, done it. I want something else, and well, this is about 50x cooler than a Hawk could ever be

Plus I'll kick yer arse on it. even better.

Another bike in ULSB is never a bad thing.

I may be getting a VFR that someone is giving me. It is apart now, and he just wants to get rid of it. This should be an interesting project. It is an 80's one, not sure of the displacement yet. I should have it monday.

[Pittenger5]

Get 65 out of it and call it a day. That way you will be able to keep up with the Hawks. (You shoulda bought a Hawk anyway )

I have 51 and I did better than keep up with your Hawk?

check the frame and see if it's got No 1 engraved it in. Scottie almost fell off the chair when he saw it on his frame....no, wait. he almost broke the chair because he's fat.

Shut up not-even-a-novice.

I look forward to handily whooping you and your 600 with my little bitty 400.

I had 30hp and kept up with you?

I did hear back from G-force... $2000 for 4 pistons! Yeowch.

There's a group buy goin on right now for Omega pistons at +1mm over and it's looking to be around $140 per piston WITH rings. Woot.

Damn, that's a lot of bread for a tiny little piston.

When I had my NC 30 I would order parts from Lings in the UK great service prices and parts. Was about 9 years ago though.

[scottieducati]

There aren't any... custom made I'm afraid.

PM me part numbers.
