    That is because you either fall off or blow up...

    My KERG in the TZR50 frame weighed 76kg with 2l of fuel. The same motor in the NX4 frame will be in the very low 70's kg range (if it ever gets finished of course).

    you should wear the lighter leathers then

    but you're not alone in the fatty club boys.
    Given our bikes are the same (80kg + 98kg me and gear) engine 18hp (time to take the restricter out Scotty: so I can start to keep up with you)...

    The Beast ... FZR250 with GP125 motor is about 103kg with fuel.

    I figure some lateral thinking could halve the Beasts weight.

    So little, that it hangs from a single nail, half heartedly whacked into a flimsy roof truss.

    Of course the motor is in a box in pieces, the forks are in a pile of other forks, I don't even know if I have wheels for it, I know I don't have a tank for it, I need to get a swingarm from another frame for it.

    Today I meet up with this Fijian bike mechanic.
    he told me that he's worked on many gp bikes from the islands. This is the tool he's going to use on my bike, if I understood right, I think he said it will half the weight. Worth a Crack?

    I think that might be just a modification for running it on ice.

    WorksafeNZ would shit themselves if he came to this country...LOL!!!
