They're saying that no one will get near the top 5 without a drop-forged technomagnesiotitanio reverse-threaded idler spiggot. And before I get flamed, that IS within the rules (although not within the spirit of the series) and apparently four bikes were running them back in '05, one of which also ran an 1143cc big bore and was kicking out 192rwbhp. That's what I heard anyway....

sorry Ali - I'll have to pick you up on the spelling there mate!

Its: technomagnesiotitaniumno

and looks like the next lot of stock are going to be in soon

Fil - have you thought of adding the aerolightening helium in the frame too?

Saves a lot of weight that does

you can use helium in the tyres too.
saves weight, and if you have a bad day, you can breath it in and do the silly voice thing.

Apparently the cagiva mito 7 speed gear box fits with little modification, one was shown to me last winter. I doubt anyone would think to check the amount of gears even on a protested bike. They are cheap to buy too and you wouldn't be the first one with one
