After experiencing the fun out of riding a light 125cc dirtbike I am dreaming about building a lightweight special. Maybe an Aprilia 250cc chassis with a light 4 stroke single fitted in. It doesn't have to be too big an engine for my needs here, under 400cc. I'd like the bike to remain under 130Kg if possible. Anybody ever come a cross a bike like this on the net. KNow of anybody who built one for racing perhaps. We've no racetracks here so I'll have to fit lights in. Wow, just the thought makes me dribble. Not too powerful. It'll be something you can really ride to its limits get the idea?

Maybe a new GSX-R750 if I'm lucky otherwise be another new-or-nearly-new SS600/750. Total cost of the new 750 is the main factor - both go up for a 750 of course...
