    As pleasingly surprising as it was, I still think the gixxer "donk" would do the bizzo better.

    Yes, but hardly worth talkin about, since everyone already knows they're the bestest, fastest...est, most hardonest bike ever built. Ergo, we're talkin about that very bestest motor, in something different.

    I believe he does still race it, and there are a couple more around. There are lts of starlets with 2l turbos in them, they arent great, but it would explain the bonnet scoop.
