so I wanted to wait to make this thread until I had a bit more progress done on the bike but this being my first track bike build I am super excited and couldn't wait to share the fun!
I'll be updating this thread as the project progresses. Currently registered with the wmrc new racer course for may hoping to be ready by then at the latest!
as it stands right now the bike is with Trevor who is the owner of flexi-glass (www.flexi-glass.com) which is a company that makes race plastics locally in my area (vancouver canada area)
Trevor is awesome! Since he didn't have a mold for the r3 yet he offered to pick my bike up from my place (towing hitch is in the plans), make a mold and give me a couple of pairs of free race plastics!! some of you guys on the west coast in the u.s may want to look into his products and take advantage of our weak dollar
Here is a terrible snapchat pic of the bike being loaded and sent away more to come!
the next step is to get a full exhaust (eyeing the akra) with a fuel management system and give that to Trevor to slap on there, apparently some of the aftermarket pipes are slung lower than the stock so it will be smarter to make the belly pan with an aftermarket can on them.
After that will be the hitch, safety wire, fire extinguisher and other pit area requirements, then a good pair of tires and if there is enough money left rearsets and clip ons!!
