Here is part 2 to the email -

I'm assuming he saw the price of the CBR125's... if he's strapped for cash then they are a viable option but just remind him he will get sick of it quicker then a bigger bike and probably have to buy another bike even sooner than he would if he bought a 250 or bigger..

As you can see most decent learner bikes are around 3k neg. (but it's better than spending another $1-2k on repairs & tyres etc which usually happens with the smaller engines as they work harder than the big bikes & learners have no idea how to maintain shit!)

Tell him gumtree is probably the best (cheap) option for finding bikes

I just had a look at bikes sales & found these ones... but there will be heaps more out there..

All of these bikes share the same engine >> (ZZR250/ GPX250 & NINJA250)<<.. this one is a baby at 16000kms...

Another good value kwakka..

This one has more kms but Hondas are reliable & this one has been looked after...

He probably thinks this one looks gayyy but again it's well looked after & reliable as hell...

pm sent mate.

got some bits for my wheels today. only had enough daylight to do one side though haha.. and need some lube to get the centre caps on, could only manage one.

the result isnt too bad, dont know if im crazy about it really. i think the main thing is the red valve cap now looks really out of place which makes it look a little messy, need to replace that for a black one!

but the quailty of the stickers and the caps is really good.

will have to excuse the dirty wheels.. will update with better pics when i get a chance to finish the job.

Yeah bugger those valve caps off and it'll look sweet mate! Different! How does the yellow look in comparison to the car?

Oh, flight is 22nd not 23rd mate so I'm not a maybe again :/

    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
