mental, really mental, but I'd like a go at it....  My favorite line: "if you can't hoist the wheel in 4th... its not a superbike"

The Aussies are, as we all well know, slightly askew -in a good sort of way :)

Wow, there's nothing like the smell of 2stroke on a Sunday Morning !

These "legends" are in my part of the world..............only a four hour ride away. I wonder if they'll have a demo bike for a test ride ??? :biggrin:

I like the stats:

"It should make 250 hp at the rear wheel and 160 ft.-lbs. of torque. Rothwell expects the wet weight to be under 340 pounds (152 kilograms)."  :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

If I get one I will call it "Brutus Basher"   :yahoo:

Just saw this. I just posted the same (link) to this article. Crazy stuff. Especially the 112 hp supermotard bike.
