  6. This is literally the stuff I dream about. Only difference is that I can only dream, while these guys are actually doing something!
    BRAVO!

  8. This is amazing stuff. Like @bradders I'd love to have a 140kg race bike, so much better than hauling around a big lardy 200kg road bike.

  13. The biggest change you can do and feel is if you change the wheels for lighters units

  14. @El Vikingo Tropical funnily enough I've got a set of oz piegas on order for it. They cost more than I paid for the bike though! :D

  16. Yep - biggest difference was adding Marchesini's to my z1000 - I'm half a mind to go up again to CF Dymags...

  17. At the first corners you will have the sensation falling in side the corner as you are use to make a lot of force to corner that with with the light wheels is not necessary any longer:)

  20. The fuel tank is being made of 1mm aluminium, it’s not the most easy thing to weld that thin material
