CHEERS FROM AUSTRAILA 
Every time I log on to this blog I'm amazed at what you guys are doing. The front finder looks great ,But that tank is a ripper.

Our rider Jacob Bagnell Jr. , ordered a custom set leathers from PILOT PACIFIC Inc in Murrieta, CA. this week.
The manager ,Alberto Gonzalez took the time to get exactly what Jacob Jr. wanted & to make sure they complied with SCTA rules.
They make a top quality set of riding leather & they gave us a great price. The workmanship is unbelieveable, The leathers have all the body armor and will go over the boot. We couldn't have asked for better people to work with.
Thank you Alberto & everyone at PILOT PACIFIC Inc.


The leathers will take about a week to get finished up , Here is what they will look like

Being a new team... We could use some sponsors.. There is lots of room on the leathers and bike for you company logo

Today was a big day , We picked the bike up from larry's shop

That was just the start of a very busy morning.... We took the bike to the sign painter so he could see what he has to work with & we gave him the details on what we HAD to have on the bike. Then it was back up to Jacobs house & we started stripping it down so we can finish up on a 100 small detail. Then we drove back down the  hill to take the tank , body , fender & other parts to ROMERO'S CUSTOM POLISHING to prep the aluminum for anodizing. Then it was over to ECP POWDER COATING to drop off parts. Then back to Jacob's house . It may not sound like much , but Jacob put  100+++ miles on his truck running back & forth. Then deailing with the painter , polisher & powder coater. It ate up our morning pretty quick.

With all the very important people you all seem to know....I would think finding a major sponsor should not be a problem................................

Very nice bike...........but remember like my good friend Mike Parti once told me...."We are not really as interested, as you think we are"......................

As we all know SPEED ain't cheap  & the first letter in the word speed should have a line in the middle

It ain't easy to get a major sponsor till you have a finished running machine. We just thought we would get the word out....

[JoeRider677]

Some sponsors are not all that easy to come by even after you've already knocked down some records. I trust that you gentlemen are coming after Foil Hat.....

Joe
From what I have seen..... FOIL HAT runs 500cc in MPS-BG  , MPS-BF , M-BG & M-BF
We aren't running in any of those classes........
Hope to see you at the salt
