iv owned my JZR morgan replica for two weeks now and iv come to the conclusion that the handeling is 'interesting' cornering speeds can be kept very high up intill the point where it just wants to roll, no under/oversteer. just grip grip grip, roll! i had a hairy moment last week with the front inside wheel, got it about a foot and a half in the air last week before scrapeing the exhaust on the road and spinnig 180 on the roundabout. thank god for side exhausts! i dred to think of what mite have hapend had i rolled.

so, cut a long story short. i want/need a roll hoop fitting, anyone got any suggestions?! i live in leeds so in or around west yorkshire. id like a U hoop style behind me with the support going back toward the rear wheel.

Thanks guys

It may not be a straightforward job: IIRC there's not much chassis structure behind the rear cockpit bulkhead on a JZR, just a light perimeter hoops to support the rear bodywork, so nothing strong enough to brace the roll bar onto. Are you a member of the JZR Pilot's Association? Perhaps other owners have come up with solutions, though I can't recall ever having seen a JZR with a rollover bar.
