Hi, I'm after an RSV track bike, ideally the 01-03 shape. 'R' version and spares (WoW, levers etc.) would be a big plus. Would also buy a damaged repairable RSV.
I'm based in Sheffield.
Thought I would add a couple of photos. There will soon be a number on the bike as I have just obtained my race licence, #181.:biggrin

I currently run an ex race RR5 CBR600 as a track bike but fancy giving the RSVR a whirl.
Having not even ridden it on the road yet i'm unsure what to expect. the last twin i had on track was...
Guys, wot can I say, I'm still grinning from ear to ear! Wot a fantastic day and the weather was brilliant too.
A big thank you to Badger for his advice. I took note of it and my bike felt as if it was on rails.
As this was my first track day I was very nervous and a little concerned I would...

I'm looking forward to a day of hauling ass with no cops.
I'll see how the ZG sport touring windscreen performs at 125+, versus the stock screen which threatened to remove my head...
Well started stripping the panels off the bike to see just how bad the damage is. Then I found the reason why I came off.
The previous owner must have had a problem with the ignition switch, either someone trying to nick it or an electrical problem. It's been repaired before with glue. It's a...
Well, my first track day was just going so well. But then it had to happen. Slid the bike down the track and into the kitty litter. No idea why, but luckily I didn't take anyone with me. My mate was following me and just before turning into turn one at the end of the start finish straight the...
I have a novice track night at knockhill tomorrow. I've managed to get about 250 miles on the bike since getting her last week. It's a 2001 r running 208's not great I know. Is there anything I should be doing prior to taking her on the track. Tyres etc.
Hey guys, just thought I would share a few pictures of my old road going zx7r which is being transformed into a track bike.
The current engine is totally gone, only salvagable for parts mainly. Big end gone after a 100+mph slide into a field caused the engine to be starved of oil :(
O well...
