        What's your vision for the finished product?

              Is that a Trident Eng frame ?

              The XR69/1100 combo is legal here - but the 5.5 rear isn't....5.0 in max allowed.

                  Hopefully my bike will be in the container heading to Phillip Island for next years Island Classic. I've been fortunate to go for the last four years. For the International Challenge race they let us foreigners use the 5.5" rear and up to 43mm forks

                    A lot of us would like to follow your XR69 build, so if you could provide new details along the way that would be great.
                    How about an introduction about yourself and your racing history.

                        Yeah, but if you're a Kiwi.....mutter, mutter.....Aussies - at least we're not sharing a continent with them now....
