All,

To assist in the construction of the riders list, please add yourselves to this thread if you are planning on racing a Bantam next year.

It might also be an opportunity to influence peoples selection one way or the other with suitable tales of performance gain or loss or perhaps a brief bio of past and furture glory !!

Really good reasons could influence final sale prices

James

James Cook : Price last year £100 Points scored 84

I will be racing a 175 again next year.

Top scorer in breakdowns last year with 8, ageing rapidly, failing eyesight and suffering from rapidly shrinking leathers !!

Caveat Emptor

James

Alan Brown: price last year £225
There was no change left for a pint and I broke down too many times, got a couple of bruises and it all cost too much especially the repairs to the leathers.
But hey thats racing!
Next year I will fit the super charger... (new rules???)

Cheers,
Alan

Last year's price - a walet bursting 25 squid.
Next year a full season is planned - on a decent set of wheels.
Dream on....
Chris

Cant remember last years price the memory has gone now im over 30!!

Next year im with out out mikes spare frame so that's one bike im down 2008s bike needs lots of love and care to get it out in April (hope we have time to get it fit again) and i have the old faithful Roger Louis bike as the only one that looks like starting the season.

I was an expensive £575 this year so to buy me would of been a mistake .. next year so many options?? My current bike - down on power piston ported 001, my engineless 003, but perhaps Jimmys Fred Lauchbury rep D3 framed back to back bantam front braked 175!! Want to be the first 175 bantam runner to win the championship as i came so close in 08!!

Robbie Brown:£175 this year
Will still be out on the 175 NEW FOR NEXT YEAR
frame mods NEW SEAT may be new pipe and the biggest mod to make my leathers fit with out the the power bulge at the front
not much chance of that with 160 MC Donalds stores to up grade hope to do all meeting so bring it on WITH ONLY 139 DAYS TILL PRATICE DAY

Mike Redhead, this year £50 , harsh but fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Next year back out on white lightning in the 175 class, following Robbies example of trying to get rid of the power bulge in the front of the leathers, will also be trying to ged rid of the bingo wings and the bargain buckets I appear to be carrying in the back of my leathers, now only 134 days to Mallory practice, scarey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope to be competing in all the meetings next year, God willing.

Cost last year 150 quid. Points scored 143. My usual reliability unfortunately failed me at the end of the season with the gearbox finally getting a little tired.

I will be fitting a LT77 gearbox from a Land Rover Defender for next year.
A little heavy I know. Strangely the percentage increase in terms of combined bike and rider weight is very small ?

Go Faster Plans :

New exhaust. Use Av Gas. Higher Compression. Modified inlet tract
Get Slim Less Heavy

Steve , purley in the interests of fairplay I have decided to donate the gearbox from my landy, I absolutley insist that you fit it to your bantam !

Just for clarity, your modified inlet tract, is this something to do with the weight loss program?
