I'm currently in 'hovering' mode ... although I really, really like the _idea_ of racing a 600 ... there are still things that are in the air ...

1. I've never ridden a monster (but know that they handle much better than an ss) and am hesitant about racing without my 'bum in the air '.
SO - is it monsters-only or not ?
(and what about the old pantahs ? you can get them for under 2k !)

2. Stumping up 3k for a bike I might not be able to modify to suit me (ie clip-ons and rear-sets cos i'm a lanky git) does not sound like a good idea.
SO - what mods will be allowed ?

3. my wife wants to know why I want yet another race bike (I race a classic duc single and 2 even older velocette singles) as this so-called road-bike will end up NOT being road-legal.
SO - do we have to keep them road-legal ?
