Hi, how about getting rid of one of the headlights, and getting a race fairing, or maybe even getting rid of the lot and a daytime only mot? Should save loads a weight.
Cheers
Ian

Do streetstocks not require std rearsets and a horn too?

The EMRA roadstocks do.

I tihlnk they also require a fitted brake light...

NG is your club isn't it mate?

OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!



Surely a contender for the worlds biggest bell end??

What a hideous thing to do to an awesome piece of engineering like that!!!!


On a similar line though, I was wondering if you could take a mould of the larger sections and craft them out of Carbon Fibre, then cut the corresponding Alluminium parts of the swingarm and bolt it all together as a Carbon/Alluminium hybrid Swingarm?? Would look awesome dont you think? Just not sure about the strength of it. LOL

There is drilling in the frame too..

Look at the tyres as well - toasted so this dude knows how to go fast it seems!

Who is it Lange? Do you know him/her?

No. I don't know him. It was a pic I found a long time ago on the internet.
