    No reason why they can't look like that

    I'd be in for a 24hr Bucket race but I doubt you'd find a track anywhere you could run it without someone whining about the noise

    apart from some still thing buckets NEED to look like well buckets

    must say up this way there are quite a few nice looking buckets
    and they have been raced many times without starting to look abused

    Those 3/4 size yamaha (YB?) and honda (nsf?) would be my guess.

    I think YSR 50, NSR 50 and maybe NSF 100.

    The NSF 100 would be fun to race F5 on. I guess it is a race engine but essentially and XR/XL engine anyway. Or maybe supercharged and race F4.

    At 74kg it would be interesting...

    If I get a chance I will calibrate the scales with 20L of water. 20l = 20kg.
    just weighed my TF engine in at 18.6kg but thats with no carb and no oil. so with those be about the same as the GP.


    on the other hand I disagree buckets do not need to look that flash! I'm building mine along the lines of that if it doesn't help it go faster or make it more reliable then its unessecary
    those M1GP bikes are awfully pretty tho....
