    Makes you understand the big gap below the bash plate though.

    Not sure that noobys would get very far on that - espcecially off road. Now if you were to put some knobblies on it and a good rider you might be supprised (and a bit out of pocket for the broken sump plastics)

    They are pretty big, heavy and very low.

    Great fun tho, I did think of how much fun that would be with some TKC's on it.

    That very low bit at the front of the engine is the radiator. so that would definitely be costly.

    Is it reaily the radiator, that front low piece.
    not a very good place to put one. would get damaged quite easly down there. even on the road.

    It'd be no worse than any other bike. If it was a UJM with a full fairing, the radiator would be in the same spot. It just looks out and exposed without the full fairing, and the V means the crank is a bit further back perhaps.
    Cheers,
    Colin

    I don't think it is the radiator.
    On any other LC8 it's the battery box.

    Mind you, on a KTM that's an expensive part too...

    Thought that the rad would have been in the usual place up higher. Oscar, I'm guessing that you've seen the thread over on adv about battery options?
