The plan is first get the suspension dialed in for me then I can start doing track days with it at MSR Cresson and can start comparing lap times with the N250. I Already have some sticky Pirelli tires for it. Once I have suspension and bodywork I'll start racing it, hopefully as soon as August. I want to paint it as close to OEM as possible. Maybe even get some of those realistic looking headlight decals. That is part of the reason I chose the red bike for easier/cheaper painting. Red, white and black is easy enough to match and I don't have to get the tank and front fender painted. Also already ordered a 415 chain kit and clip ons.

I want to keep the stock bodywork in perfect condition to sell and help offset some of the cost of converting to a race bike.

Once the R3 is all sorted out I'll put the N250 race bike up for sale to help recover more costs of turning the R3 into a race bike
