Cookies legs have been removed. Will she be ready in time?

I made a new exhaust bracket and seat pad for Cookie. Three weeks till the big race!

The shock now has LE Valving and is back on Cookie. The race weekend is 25 days away.

Cookie has fresh clutch plates and a new clutch cover gasket. I have just one weekend to improve on my Willow PB of 1.24.5 from 22 years ago and I don’t want to miss it because I did not put in the work to be ready. The aluminum tube next to the front wheel will be part of the new M4 exhaust bracket.

Back to work on Cookie. Her shock is out for LE valving and a spring for my weight. Note the Ti nuts holding the sprocket. We will be ready for the Superbike Showdown Oct 4th & 5th.

Because of your Excellent services…i cant decide which one to ride! Thanks Ed! and Lindemann Engineering.

If you have wondered how I can beat up on many of the RS 660’s with my stock engine ’17 SV650. Part of the answer is my 42 years of racing. Another part is my obsession with lightening my bike. This is the aluminum seat lock tab I made to replace the stock steel tab. A few grams less to speed up, to slow down and to flick. Plus, when my Tuner does his best, my Rider does his best.

Sometimes you open the box and are pleasantly surprised. This Fox Shox is from a ’92 TZ250 and the good condition it’s in proves I should not be surprised that it’s owner boxed it so well.

Yes, even that short 6x1mm bolt holding the oil cooler bracket to the engine has been replaced with Ti. If your Cookie is a race bike, the chocolate chips are made of Ti.
