Really. Not like the ARKX. This really does live...

Matt looks like a proud father.

Expect an update sometime soon. Well, maybe not soon, but there will be an update at some point. Of that I'm sure...

That's the weirdest sounding thing I've heard for a long time. Props and respec', as I believe the Yoot say nowadays.

Fantastic stuff! That bike would be set to be one of the scariest bikes to ride - 110kg and the CR500 power curve - wheelies ahoy!

Congrats! :eusa_think:

Quick chuck the bodywork on and get it in the mag and some proper vid of spining up/ wheeling everywhere.

Nice work :eusa_think:

Oh sorry forgot this is PB we're talking about!!!

I mean chuck it back in the shed cover it in cobwebs for another 3 months and pretend it never did run :xmas:

Then get it out try and put it together but find you've lost the screw for the faring and that you sold the seat unit on ebay whilst drunk!!

You're right. That would normally happen. But MW has had the foresight to avoid the situation by giving the bike to PB mechanic Mark at M&M. That boy drinks more Red Bull than is good for him, he won't be able to keep his fidgety fingers off it. He's the reason it's actually running.

There's a small update in the next issue but there should be a more indepth report in the one following that.

I genuinely neber thought I'd see the day that any of you got one of those "project bikes" from the mag running. Ii's a PB tradition to lead us along the garden path to the garage only to see a new project, with the old one sold/scrapped/hidden away.

I like it, it'll never pass noise testing though!

Kinda looks ZX-6R'ish.

I close my eyes, and the sound takes me out to my local MX track. Sounds wicked!

Fucking Excellent ! :icon_salut:

And old friend of mine built a KR1 with a KX500 lump in it, first test ride it snapped the chain, 2nd ride it rattled and shook its

number plate, rear light and many nuts and bolts off in a trail of destruction down my street. Vibrated enough to loosen fillings (bowels)

LOL good to see it run. I wanted to do something similar with my RS125 but keep the running gear stock (and keep the L plates on too).

It sounds a lot 'meatier' in the metal, trust me the camera makes it sound like a 250 'crosser but the Gibson pipe on the Mito makes a gorgeous sound. Really bassy.

And thanks very much, I was pretty pleased to finally hear it running. There's some top work gone it to it so far, it deserves to be finished and ridden :eusa_wall:
