    Time for some more mods I wanted to make the rear end less boat like and more aggressive
    aluminium sub frame so the old girl loses some real weight sp1 single race seat,
    new alloy rear tank bracket, single rear brake line in swing arm.
    as a comparison to the r1 front conversion this is a far more complex affair
    at this point in time weight loss is approx 18 pounds with lipo battery
    not sure about paint colour yet but will keep up dating if any interest.

    Plenty of time to do the mods while waiting on shoulder surgery again!
    Had large high side out of beckets at Oulton Park while chasing bmw in wet
    - not a good idea on road tyres not wets, the moment got the better of me
    here some pics

    Bravo!!

    I have a rare audio (LP record) done at Oulton Park in 1955. Mercedes-Benz hauled out the 1930's GP cars on a specially built vehicle transport base on the MB 300SL fired them up and ran them in the rain.

    The cars are the W 163 and the later W 125.

    The Recording is on the Riverside label.

    More updates on some very nice work if you please..
