    Watch out on auckland streets for an old mate of mine.
    He's a turbo freak and is fitting a turbo to his K5
    I WARNED HIM THE THING WOULD BE NUTS
    all he could say was--"cus i can"
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Are magnesium wheels lighter than carbon? I thought it was the other way around. If carbon is lighter, then why wouldn't they use those on a money-no-object bike like this?

    Depends on grade of magnesium... and grade of carbon/apoxy used etc etc etc. Generally carbon is lighter cause you arn't puttin a $10000+ set of magnesium wheels on ...

    Oh yeh and the road thing.....
    Lump lingered last in line for brains,
    And the ones she got were sort of rotten and insane...
