Back to Basic
Grand Prix Racing frame, virgin... never drilled upper mount est 1980 vintage John Harmon.
Early Koenig Fork, delicate and two long drilled pieces of extremely expensive Alumec (Uddeholm) is ordered for downtubes manufacturing to correct length. Al Stem will be replaced by drilled thru steel as well as the front axle. It will still be the lightest fork on the face of the earth and I can still eat.....
The rest will be basic, Heads are in work and mag and pump drive will be one off.
Will focus on finishing this 2020, No scheduled racing. "E-Mother" is race ready, will not cannibalize anything and keep it intact.
The Engine will be almost identical 120 Cui, 3 13/16 Bore.
Looking for a optimum drum front brake. preferably dual action smaller Dia.

2018 Winner of the Cup, Classic Dragbike Scandinavia.
I´m holding it until the end of the 2019 season, and I will defend it.
Improved and consistent qualification reaction times did it.
Winner of one of the 50 Years anniversary events at Kjula Dragway and placed decent in the rest.
We sum up the 4 best of 6 events for the total..
Good racing with a good number of racers, may be one of the bigger of the amateur Dragbike classes.
The engine is 100 % and we only fought some erratic ignition problem which did not show up when tied down in the pit or in the shop. a couple of pins in a contact in the trigger harness. We also lost fire in a semi when a brand new fancy battery decided that strong vibrations in the burnout calls for 7 volts.......
New bike build is on its way and it will be 4 inch slick, Magnetoooo and Mechanical injection. Back to Basic.
