He said he was on a LOW budget!
Any idea what kind of 400-500cc bike your going to run? I went through quite a process before decidng on the Blast, or as some call it Be-last. I decided that racing in the Push-Rod class would be fun, and the Blast get's there without resorting to 40 year old machinery (although it is 40 year old technology. Ok, honestly, 70 or 80 year old technology...). Unfortunatly there are not a lot of current 400-500cc motorcycles around, although in the under 30 crowd, I think a CX500 would have potential.
Welcome from yet another newbie. Let's see, your dad will be 50 in 2011? Crap, I'm older than him (but young at heart!
