Yes Russ.. the more I look at it, the more I want one..
And of course one isn't enough,
I want one for the road and one for the track..!!
Better keep saving then..

Well here it is all finished..!!
After the last 2 track days, I just had a few small teething problems to work out, but they are all done, still got down to a flat 52'.. so I was happy with that on it's first outing..
The new rear sprocket is on now as well, just got to get used to the new brakes, gearing and gear changes, but I reckon I will be reporting back with a flat 50' next time (hopefully even better!!)
So all systems go for the Anzac day double..!!

Thanks Mike,
Whenever I build up a bike I spare no expense, when it leaves my shed it is always perfect..
I always ride and set up my own re-build bikes, so if I am going to risk my life on it, it has to be right..!!
Not like some of these shonky dudes who buy a wreck, slap some race glass on it and then advertise it as a track bike..!!
And I have built up a good reputation for my rebuilds.. the new owners are never dissapointed..!!

Thanks all for your very kind comments...!!!
However I dont think I will have much play time on it, as it is virtually SOLD already...!!!
You all know my passion is with my ZX10, so that doesn't really bother me that it is going already..
I might still take it to the island to show it off and get a couple of pictures.. but wont be doing much..
It will give me some spare funds to go towards the new 2011 ZX10...!!
Which hopefully I will have a black one in my garage over the Winter break to play with..

Hi again,
Well I can say that the 675 is definitely SOLD.. but I still got to test out a couple of small mods I made before taking it to the island over the past 2 days..
It is a great bike to ride, light and easy to throw around. I have the suspension set up perfectly and the bike handles so well.. it was a pleasure to ride (The new owner is the same weight as me, so it will work well for him as well)..
Anyway, here are the last 2 pics taken.. Excellent track bike, and very easy to ride fast.. I can see why there are so many about on the track..
