Raced a 1982 1000J superbike 2013 was created by darlington
I built a 1000J superbike using parts I already had and an actually original Superbike from the early eighties. Its very close to an S1 and I have the proper S1 bodywork to put on it at some later date. It was a learning curve to race such a big bike, Previously I raced a 81 GPZ 550 and 78 KZ 650. It was a rush down the back straight at Mosport on this bike superbike.
I've attached a before and after
