    Great bike, is the engine stock or did you tweak it a bit?

      Engine is built to TR spec and has Nova CR tranny,reed valve conversion, tm38s and an electrix world self generating ign. No charging sys on bike but will never go too far. Was assembled by Frank Leitner of Leitner and bush and really makes some ponies. Little more dyno time in the spring but 110hp is realistic.

        That sounds like fun. How much lighter is it than a stock water buffalo?
        The only one I rode much was completely stock except for a three into one expansion chamber, it was very heavy.

          It is very light but I haven't weighed it yet. Marvic magnesium rims and everything stripped that could be.

              Phew! I'm impressed. Ironic that at least 3 of us on here have cafe Buffalos. Are you a member of any of the 2-stroke forums? If so, which ones and what name do you go by?

                  That would be really cool to get the two GT,s and the two Kats together.
