Finding one's the hard bit, all the good ones stay in the club so as Alan says get to meetings.It's a matter of being in the right place at the right time with the intentions of racing and keeping it in the club.

I guess anything between £1000-£1500 as it cost more than this to build a good one from scratch.

Good Luck


Tony

ps Stay away from heaps pf crap on Ebay,they'll cost you a fortune in the long run and never make the grade

well that sounds pretty cheap. ive been off road racing for a few years now and fancied road racing but couldnt afford a decet bike but your club sounds a good laugh ill be attending a few meeting this year deffo!! ive also noticed a few of the lads also live in lincoln as well!!

Hi Robbie100 i live in Lincoln as does Ian and James, where abouts are you? The CRMC don't have a bantam class - we all race with BHR. Message me on bantam33@hotmail.co.uk Mike

Mike sorry, I think you probably misunderstood me. I'm going to parade in the CRMC instead of racing with the Bantams. As it is alot cheaper and you get a feel for the same tracks earlier but not race.

*With a CB125 I'm currently in connection with. It's bored out to 200cc.

Tim have you given up on racing a bantam? You can not race a Honda CB with BHR as its japanese! My advice is parade a bantam for a year then race it with us (BHR). How much is it to parade with CRMC? It can not be that cheap!

I'm afraid so Mike. Parading within the CRMC is £122 per meeting which is you get 4 parades in a two-day weekend. Cheaper than racing but you get a feel for the tracks they race on. What's parading like in the BHR?

Tim

BHR only do racing! well sometimes there may be a bantam or velo parade but generally just racing! Have you not thought of doing track days they are cheap at this time of year!? So i assume when you have done time parading a Honda you will then race with the CRMC? Perhaps you will change your name to Hondaparadertim? lol Tim parade a bantam!! with the CRMC but keep to the circuits BHR do then come racing....

I've thought of doing No Limits track days since they do juniors. I have had a look at Ron Haslam at Donington. Looks good. Using CBR125's I think. Well....parading with the CRMC for a year then come do Bantams....seems doable. I have half of a Bantam reassembled in the garage at the moment. Probably will knock up something racer-like over the term and holidays.

hi mike im on winn street in the city centre im thinking of going to a few meetings and meeting a few people and check a few bikes out as ive never even ridden a bantam!!!!! but want to get into a bit of track racing as the off road scenes died off lately and the sandracings getting too cold!!!

Tim, parade the bantam
