no. not until you have a firstborn to sell.

I will be aiming for 90 though. but that still requires
  • 900cc big bore kit
  • lightened and balanced top end (yes the rockers) along with some other rocker shaft tricks
  • lightened balanced and bung welded crank
  • superlight rods
  • lightened rotor (or none at all)
  • really 'hot' cam
  • ported intake, polished exhaust on heads
  • oversized valves, HD springs, bronze guides, titanium retainers etc.
  • polish gear faces
  • all new engine bearings, etc...
  • +1 heavy duty clutch kit
  • a bunch of different sized copper gaskets to get head height correct
  • ^^^ and that's just the beginning
that's just inside the cases/block. you still need to get some CR31 or 33 carbs, dyna 2000 ignition + coils, an oil cooler, etc...

oh and the best part about all of this? you'll probably have to have 2 of everything and rebuild the motor every 500-1000 miles.
I am so fucking excited.

That last one excites me in the pantal area. Headlight needs to be seated about an inch lower and it'd be perfect.

I feel like on some bikes having to mount a light at all is a crime.

The ones that see track use only, for sure. It flows so much better.

When my brother is done with the 250, I'm taking it back, and making it a track slut.
