March Update

Western Mass

March 5, 2007

Jamie just placed his parts order with LP and Street and Comp. He is getting a new race tail for the RR, plus a new woodcraft rearsets package as he did a number on the other set from various crashes.

Jamie needs a special tool to take apart the steering head (waiting on Japan), so bearing replacement might have to happen after the VIR trip or he might just have GMD inspect the whole front end and do the replacement.

The next money spending steps are going to be determined by how well my tax person does lowering the tax amount that I owe.

Ideally Jamie wants to send off the forks and shock to GMD to have them rebuilt for the 2007 season.

Jamie in his new helmet:

Bodywork repair still goes on, but we are starting to see progress!


Neal is in the middle of his first engine rebuild, which includes frustration, and internal anger management. Its coming along though, but lots of special tools required for the job. He has his suspension back from GMD which we mounted up lastnight. When done, Neal will be riding a bike with a new engine and new suspension ... and testing it all out at VIR!

5 weeks from today we will be racing around VIR getting ready for the 2007 race season!
