Brett de Stoop, the New contender?

[Dr Goggles]

There'll be a lot more to be written about all this but just for starters I have to tell you guys that Brett de Stoop is the next big thing..... he's been to the last three DLRA meets running a 1000cc waterbottle....he ran 211 last year, he'd turned up with new bodywork after ditching the previous all aluminium job with a water tank in tail...the new fiberglass stuff was gorgeous and included a silhouette of himself as John Travolta in Saturday night Fever with "Salt Fever" underneath.....this year he was back, leaner, more "cowboy" than ever before.....this is a guy who has sand cast and machined his block, turned his own heads, tuned the motor on the dyno he built himself and put it into a frame he built clothed in a body he built ,he's not just the real deal ....he's the fastest I think because he ran 232 plus.....any comments?


btw, he mentioned he saw 240+ on the GPS

you gotta hear the sound this things makes when he clicks it into top gear at about 200 mph. like no 2 stroke you've ever heard.

Congratulations!
There's nothing like an angry 2 stroke.
Please post some pictures of the engine.

Wicked, totally badass. 

[SPARKY]

Awwww--- lettin them things fire on each down stroke is sorta like----well let's just say
 
they just don't sound QUITE right    LOL   

[Rex Schimmer]

Doc,
How many cylinders does this thing have? Two strokes can make some pretty awesome power and noise!

Looks like he is following in the steps of Burt Munroe.

The bike is based on a 70's Suzuki GT 750 triple, affectionately known as the "Water Buffalo or "Iron Kettle".
Brett is a legend in the 2 stroke world with his reed valve conversions and expansion chambers for the GT 750's.

[John Burk]

He must be using Orbital's direct injection technology . They say it's superior to 4 cycle .

great to see more variety and original thinking-so refreshing after the 'sea of identical busa,s'

i look forward to hearing a potent stinkwheel on the salt-

[bak189]

Two of Larry Colemans AMA Sidecar Roadracing Championships were done with a "water buffalo" Suz. powered sidecar outfit...........they were very fast.......and lots of torque for pulling a chair w/passenger.
I was racing a BSA big-bore Triple sidecar in those day.........and the "water buffalo" would run away from
the Beezer.................AH, the good "Old Days"

Bretts results very much reflect the effort he put in, 

I hope he can be one of the bikes coming to the US this year

Brett's very much the local celebrity and despite chatting to him on the line, I didn't know he lived just down the road.

He was having issues with being sucked off the bike at speed and thought it had to do with the shape of the back protector in his leathers. They messed with it to reduce the hump and tested on the GPS track but I didn't hear how it went.

He made the local rag(s) this week.





Cheers,

So I google maraylyan and get two results:

1.  This newspaper article
2.  www.thesauce.info which links to....this newspaper article.

So, six minutes wasted and I know less than I did before.

Google "Maraylya, NSW" and all will be revealed.
