Mine with modified stock frame and on 17's with big brakes etc was 142kg wet with about 4l of fuel. Tony was pissed as his VFR framed one was heavier.
Ran it as a lightly modified road bike at a flying quarter soon after I got it - 125mph with me riding.Fastest 400 was a good FZR at 118mph. Never ran it at another flying quarter but at a Wigram club day it ran away from a pair of GSXR750's in it's final form on our fuel blend.

i did not do the laps so cant compair after been on that sidecar the day before , my arms were rooted , face it when you try to hard you can end up going slower but have to as no one had the straght line speed of Nathaniel

Interesting, we maybe talking more soon.
Stumbled across this yesterday A.N.D motorcycles via eurospares.
I have nearly all the bits other than the red bit linking it all together.

thats because he know he has it on you on the straght , got told in the f3 years ago when my bike was stock that the only reson they were betting be was because they had better corner and exit speed , funny when i got my bike going faster i was 2 sconds a lap faster ! , i was slower on the brakes and corners and went even faster , easy to sit back and watch but untill people have the speed of NP you cant compair

Yeah no doubt the bike is fast and light. But he rides it really well. He don't drink and he is fit. Oh and young. I thought it had like 24hp?

Yes 24 (DynoJet) with a nice spread, the Diproses could get more power but have concentrated their efforts on getting their bikes to drive nicely around the track, and it shows in the results.
