    ...yes, I know it's technically a `race bike', but I don't think 50cc of thumper rage is going to cause anybody any problems.

    I think 17 is being being quite generous to, has any one dynoed a FXR yet?

    There was one of those racing at the Battle of Buckets
    "If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."

    At the end of the day, those DOHC 4-valve engines will put out more horsies than my archaic LongChin,.. so the best way of staying competitve is to lighten her and ride like a looney !!

    And yes, I'd love a CR110 too !!

    I said a warm FXR, I believe they put out ~15-16 std depending on the dyno.

    The CR110 rep thingy was ridden by Dave Britten who writes for KR every so often. Yeah it does look kinda cool, albeit a horrible 4 stroke device.

    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    You can tell he never ate his marmite sandwiches as a lad.
    "I came into this game for the action, the excitement... go anywhere, travel light,... get in, get out,... wherever there's trouble, a man alone... Now they got the whole country sectioned off; you can't make a move without a form."

    Paved roads are just another example of wasted tax payer dollars.

    I didn't realise Battler was still doing Buckets. Sheez, I used to race buckets with him (& Tony M) back in the late '80s.
