Search function is kicking my butt again...

Anyone remember a post on a very well done FJ road racer.  Not the posts or website on "Doc" Hacker and his mob, but a no-expense spared racer that looked like it might have an FZ750 fairing.  I think Fred may have been the original poster

And pretty sure it wasn't any of the Harris framed bikes discussed about 10 pages back...

great white

Would this be it:



"Michale Dibb will race the Rex Wolfenden FJR1200 Yamaha at Island Classic"

I don't have any further info on it, google turned that up for me....

That could be it - the post had pictures of it in the shop.  Want to save the pics for future reference...

great white

probably not it, but too cool not to post it up:

That's an Australian bike and the "Island Classic" is an historic bike event held at the Philip Island MotoGP track.
I've even had my FJ on that track. It was really cool. It was only two days after the MotoGP and the track was still covered in Rossi and Stoner rubber. I could pretend those 250kph drift lines through the corners were from my previous lap.

Racer looks great and somewhere in the internet is one more picture of that bike.
IMHO this fairing looks damn great on FJ 1200
