| Re: u.k. fireblade dragbike update yes, you're correct. It's 67", my bad. Have you tried Schnitz racing? You could also try Elton Fish at EFRracing. He can probably make it for you, but he's a lil expensive. And yes, RR's get ZERO respect at the dragstrip. I run with 5 or 6 guys and we all have Hondas. |
