    If it makes 195 at the rear wheel i will eat my own testicles with my own vomit as the starter.

    If its under 180kgs Wet i will eat my one remaining ear

    If its both the above i will run down the road nekkid behind a gritting truck.

    And its fugly.

    Blades rule, simple as.

    PS, wonder if honda will have a word with ducati about that seat unit, very 04-07esque

    lol...lol

    I think you may eat the ear...lol I agree about power 195 less 11% is (calc time) 173.55 at the wheel ish... but ft-lb is unknown and with pistons the size of dinner plates I guess it will be high. I would guess total weight has got to be around 180kg so like I say you may eat the ear, I only hope they blueprint a press bike so we can post up those pics of you behind gary glittler..I mean the gritter... :)
