that is a very nice morph....:drool
 
need more info. how much does this weigh? Where can we see it ride? Is it in the US? or UK? Can I beat someone up and take it? If not, can I ride it? Is this legal for AFM FIV? Why don't I have one? uhhhh. Have you taken this off any sweet jumps?

Seriously, sweet bike.
 
Holeeee fuzzuck!
 
I want one.....where do I sign??? :teeth
 
I'm curious as to the differences in power and weight

Who cares, just hearing it would be awesome as well as that smell of 2-stroke...it reminds me of......VICTORY! I would sit up at Alice's revvin' the sheet out of that bike....:twofinger

Sorry, couldn't resist that one :rofl

Around 90 HP on a slightly tweaked RZ500, up to 120 fully tuned. Dunno how much the engine and mounts weigh vs. the R6 engine; hopefully close or the chassis balance would be fuxored. It's really about having a bike that kicks you in the ass.
