I see what you are saying ... if money is no object then go for it! Fill your boots.

I don't really care to be honest, I could have spent more on power but chose not to because I didn't think the cost per bhp were worth it for my situation. If someone is in a money no object situation then good for them - rock on.

this was only a hypothetical question really. but the fact is if you had unlimited cash and wanted to spend it on a DD bike you could have a 70+ bike that handles the nuts and weighs stuff all. you still have to ride it though and in reality no one would bother spending that much on a DD bike.

How would you pare the bike down to 150kg without braking the rules? All the usual suspects (wheels, engine parts, etc) must be original. A Ti screw kit might save 1kg, and a carbon tank another 2kg, but the dry weight of a monster is 177kg, so I doubt anyone would get it much below 165kg regardless of budget.

Our rough estimate with Snotty was 170:(

be interesting to weigh them exactly tho....

I wonder if Scotty has some scales - or maybe berto (which he uses for his big 'hump' :lol::lol:)

Sorry Scotty!!!!:rolleye::o:alien:

Too much for me :lol:

Reliability over tuneability ? Handling over BHP ? ;)

Base dyno's etc from 620 here http://www.moto-one.com.au/performance/620sport.html

If weight = speed then speed = DIET and this cost nothing but will power ;)

It was a hypothetical question and should perhaps have been entiltled "how quick can you make a 620" .

As the points regarding suspension are well made.

I was kinda looking for an approx list of parts / price to see what effectively could be achieved on a particular buget.

ie
PC111 - £300
Dyno time - £40/hour
Custom exhaust - £500
Blueprinting - £400
Lightened flywheel - £80
etc, etc

My 620 sport makes 60.2 bhp at the rear wheel, please let me know where i can find 10 bhp more . I think that the over all set up of the bike is more important than bhp. But i may be wrong ?

What sort of results are you getting on track though?!?!?!?




...oh yeah ;) :D
