I just started mini road racing and would like to get an NSR or NSF project bike for my winter down time.
I really like the NSF body work and would be looking to put a 4 stroke engine in of some sort.

The perfect deal would be an NSF/R roller with or without body.
LMK what you have or where to look as well as what to expect to pay.

Nothin huh

supernes550

you don't see too many rollers for sale.

I'd take a basket case or an x-race bike as well. Looking for a project bike I can use for track days and what not. Not looking for a collectors piece just a usable set up.

Join the club...I think a lot of people are looking for what you want, myself included.

MAZZ77X

I figured as much, but it can't hurt to put it out there. LMK if you stumble across anything that you pass on.

supernes550

you can also try the local mini racing organizations in your part of the country

i may have a roller up for sale in the next couple of months. all dependent on time though.

I may do something with my stocker Metrakit. I looked at it many times thinking about how easy it would be to get some other motor into. It would be awesome to drop in a 150R, or even a 150F motor. It won't be cheap though-- around $2000 w/o the motor, as Derbi engines tend to be in the $400+ range, and climbing as they get more difficult to find. I may go $1700 if I can keep the upper and lower bodywork. --L*64

How are the Metriakit's as far a size goes compared to the NSF/R?
I heard they are more styled for smaller/kid size people.
They are really nice twins you have there, no wonder your Lucky!

How about a YSR or two? I have one complete and one torn down for powdercoat and never reassembled.

Maz-- They have a longer wheelbase than any other 12 inch bike, and the way I have it set up, it handles like it's on rails.

As far as being for smaller riders-- it kind of is.... unless you get the tail for the bigger 17 inch wheeled bike. It's two inches longer. If you PM me with your home EM addy, I'll send you a pic of my race bike with the longer tail on it. It bolts right up like it belongs there. There are stiffer springs than what I have available for it too. I'm going to get them this winter.

If you look at where the engine mounts up-- there is a ton of room in there, the space frame is steel-- so it's an easy fab up. I had some NSR50's before, and I can assure you that these are the raciest chassis available with 12 inch wheels. I was hoping to get my hands on a GRC bike, but it looks like it isn't going to be available here in the States.

I love the bikes-- but I don't really need two of them as I rarely crash, and the one I'm racing has been stone reliable. The parts have been pretty available through Metrakit Canada, or Cycle Imports. Not only that-- but I've been leaning more in the pit bike direction than roadracing. --L*64

Tony, you never go fast enough to crash!! HAHAHA J/K man!
Those MK's are nice, and the pro kit for those really open up that bike and the power is crazy! Now, if Tony would slap some TT92's on that bike, then it would handle even better!

Luckystar64

Hahaha... Actually-- Since I started reading, I really would be hard pressed to sell the stocker now. That gave me a jump on the winter projects. It looks like those sweet GRC bikes aren't coming here either, so I guess I'll keep racing the ones I have.

As far as crashing goes, I wish I didn't crash in the pit bike races... I usually don't crash in the actual races. But I've crashed at just about every event I've been to this year-- in practice anyway.

HACKMUNCH

if you dont crash your not riding hard enough.

Luckystar64

With all those extras, that's a really decent price! Somebody should jump on that. How long did it take for the fairings to come from HRC? ---L*64

scorpio

about 4 months and they were not cheap!

Also, forgot I have a brand new aluminum fairing stay included.

Luckystar64

I had an NSF100 before. I was planning a project with it, but Honda pissed me off with their B.S. about bringing over a $5000 minibike, then having every part that isn't on a different model be on permanent backorder. ---L*64

fireman_343

Wow, if I had an extra $4K, I'd buy that bike right now!!!
Did you just order the fairing stay from a honda dealership?? I'm wanting to get one for my aftermarket bodywork that I've got on my NSR now.
