I know this is a bit old (the actual site is pretty shit and not updated) but imagine running one of these in f3. A bit underpowered but with a chissis like that you could do stuff to get some more go out of the engine.

Quite an interesting bike. I think it looks pretty cool. Glynn Kerr designed it didn't he? EDIT: Yes he did. Says so in the article

If the quote is for horses at the rear wheel, it'd be far from underpowered in F3.

Even if not, it could be a really competitive package out of the box I reckon.

180kg wet is not bad.

Claims that it has an awesome chassis. 180kg wet is on the lighter side too.

Why do they keep referring to it as a super-bike?

Cause the design is based on a moto gp bike i assume.

Oh and yellow is the only colour. If ya read the add they take out that carbon strip on the tank and make it clear... Good way to see how much gas ya got left.

Yip 77 at the rear wheel and that is stock. and 180kgs wet is pretty light hell it's lighter than a new gixxer600 by a bit. It says they are also bringing out a powered up model. Feck that thing must really fly and not bad value for $$$ either. About $ 16,100.53 brand spanking new...
