From Anthony. We'd really like this bike to remain a short track racer. Great entry-level bike. See if you like racing for not a massive outlay. Eligible to race short track and Thunderbike class, all for £50 a meeting (this year, anyway). More heats than most men can cope with. Take it away, Tone.
Yes I am selling the SR as I am building a new project.
I have just taken the head off lapped the valves, replaced the valve stem seals and fitted a new decent head gasket as it was burning some oil at Scunthorpe (one valve seal was leaking). I checked the piston rings etc and all looked fine.
Other mods I have completed since I bought it: Rejetted Crab and stopped it from flooding (brand new Mikuni Carb); KTM foot pegs; Star Flat track bars; XT500 tank (SR500 tank nicely painted also available); full set of proper AMA number boards; new 520 O-ring chain and spockets (smaller gauge than the original 530 chain); new gear selector shaft and spare original Yam gear lever; new clutch; Twin top-end oil feed conversion; head stock bearing replaced; new swingarm bearings; new rear brake shoes; proper Yam manual on CD; spare fork seals (not needed yet); changed and increased volume of fork oil as they were too soft, brand new rear shocks; oil changed each meeting.
I paid £1000 for it you can see the old ad on the SB blog. I have spent at least £600 in the last 3 months. So I would accept £1200. That wil include some brand new extra front and rear sprockets and a spare set of levers.
It has a full set of documents and if you wanted you could put a disc and caliper on it and MOT it on a daytime MOT pretty
quickly. I have spent a lot of money and time on it in the last few months so it should be a good one.

Short track, 14th April 2007, Kings Lynn. I have only ever stopped at this north Norfolk town twice in my life; once to watch short track racing and once to watch short track racing. The Norfolk Arena was the venue on both occasions and, as a venue, offers basic, but very adequate facilities more like grass roots, which is a good thing me thinks. The viewing is exceptional from the stands (this 400m track is a speedway oval), but get close to really appreciate the speed of this form of racing.
