New RVF lightweight fuel tank...

Welcome to the brand new BMC lightweight racing tank for the Honda RVF 400. It has an inner 6.5 litre aluminium tank complete with a fibreglass cover. Not only is it half the weight of a standard tank, but it also fits and fills in exactly the same way too! A true piece of engineering brilliance - well done Mike, Rod, Leon, Craig, Freddy and the gang for creating it. And it's for sale to anyone looking to lose some weight this season. For details email Mike at sales@bmcracing.co.uk or call him on 01948 667976.



(It looks just like standard, only lighter!)

EXPO 2009

Today Mike, Leon and the gang went to the EXPO Trade show at the NEC. Myles and co at Manbat had an exhibition stand there...and it looked great! This time both championship winning bikes were out on display too. I couldn't make it, but I got very proud when I looked through the photo's that Tracey had sent me.

And to top it all off, Leon won a competition to win some free advertising space! I'm sure we'll put it to some very good use. Thanks, and well done Leon.

Here are some pics:

(A very professional outfit)



(Leon's winning bikes looked great!)

Paper bike rider...

Well, Tracey's been busy! And look what she's created...a motorbike made entirely from paper. Yes paper! It's a work of art. I now need to work out how to produce the template for a BMC Racing version. Err...my head's starting to hurt now.

Anyway, well done Tracey, it's great. And here it is in all it's glory:


(Only very, very, very light people can ride it though)

AutoSport Show 2009...

Last weekend saw Myles and the Manbat team at the Autosport Show at the NEC in Birmingham. And what a display it was too! Myles had put together a stand that he should be proud of. And Leon's championship winning F400 Honda was on display too. It all looked fantastic! Here's a few pictures of the occasion...

(The stand grabbed lots of attention)

(Girls and bikes...why does that always work?)

(The 'Talkshop' was a great success)

(Now that's a big seat!)

New faces...

Rod and Craig have very smart new welding masks. They perfectly match the R6, and are as beautiful as the race bike components they produce. You do yourselves proud guys!

Watch this space for future developments...

(What a beautiful piece of engineering)

Leading the pack...

Here's a couple of shots that remind me how good Leon's starts are - hot off the line, then pulling a gap on lap one. Superb! It also reminds me that I really can't wait for it all to start again in March...can you?

(The lights go on, they go off and they get away!)
