Re: Weight
I know the adverts said so - but a standard road going zxr400 never weighs 160kg in a million years

Re: Weight
illegal....that doesnt matter...
What matters is.....the bike is as lite as possible while being relitvly safe...
I through out my rear brake disc ,caliper,master cly,.. etc..
I sold it to a scrap metal dealer
now some folks may not agree with that ... but its 6 of one and half a dozen of the other...
my point is it doesnt matter wheather its ilegal or not.
If we all obeyed the rules ,what kind of a world would we be living in??

Re: Weight

And to say illegal doesn't matter what a load of bollox, and relatively safe?????
