He's racing in the all japan superbike championship... the home of retired and up and coming japanese racers  :lol:

He won the latest round on may 14th. He's still got it  B-)

No it was mint. He was a really nice guy i spoke to him a few times about the bikes and stuff. Reckons its cost him 10K all in :shock: Got braking wheels and that paint job. He is from Nottingham so your neck of the woods Horse.

Got full Akra evo system B-)

Did you give him Forum detals then? seeing you where are embassador!!

This is the bike.



And yes i did tell him about the forum and the trackday to Silverstone but he dont get on the Internet so probably wont see him on here but maybe at silverstone.

Cos it be on the  636b1/2  you can see what it would look like on a 04/5 10R.
Nice.

Surely the pics of yanagawas 05 10R gives you an idea of what it would look like on an 05 10R?

Whatever helps you imagine it bud  ;-)
