Hi to all from Oz
« on: January 15, 2011, 11:59:21 AM »
Hi all, stumbled across this forum in a Google search. I've been on 10r.net for a while, but had no idea this existed. I'm in Sydney, presently about the only part of Australia that isn't under water ...

I'm the loving owner of an '07 that has had far too much time and money spent on it (don't tell the wife or I'll be castrated). Bike is track-use only, and I've concentrated on getting it as light as I can ; don't know for certain what the starting point was, but I've removed net 36.1 kg to date. A bit more to come over time, but most definitely the easy stuff has been done.

Look forward to learning plenty and meeting good people on here, and hopefully contributing from time to time.

Cheers,
Brian

Hi Brian, Welcome to the forum M8  :icon_thumleft:
Sounds like you've done some interesting stuff to your bike to lose that weight.
Wanna put some pics and description up some time?

Akrapovic ti full system
Nissin front calipers

Ohlins TTX with ti spring
Motion Pro Revolver throttle assembly (about to be replaced with the kit assembly)
aforementioned BSTs
Renthal 520s

Fuel Cel tank

I've got a few more things on the shelf yet to be fitted :

kit cams / valve springs / head gasket / shift drum
Factory Pro shift cam
ISR superlight rear caliper
electric water pump
CBR1000RR (06-07) radiator

Thanks to all for saying gidday (I'll ignore the subtle-ish cricket comment from jamma  :lol: , as I don't acknowledge it as a sport - bring on the Rugy World Cup), look forward to spending some quality time on this forum.

Cheers,
Brian
