Wow, I didn't realise the GSX-R was that light!



Nah, that sounds like a fantastic weight, I didn't know they were quite that light.

Give is a curb side weight ready to ride.

Agree about the power, what matters most is the wheel power, however it is possible to measure power at the crank - use an engine dyno!

Are you sure there is such a thing? I mean how are you going to take the drive off of the crank without any loss from the gear box? Bah. Not to worry.

You're all missing the point. The Honda was best.

I thankyou.

Poppycock.

The Honda was a *spit* Honda. Therefore it's ineligible for any "what's best" comparison.

Well, it exists for cars, so I assumed (maybe wrongly! ) it existed for bikes too - same principle and possibly even same machine. I don't know any details though, whether it uses a gearbox, etc.

I think itll be easier with a car though as the gear box generally is seperate from the Engine... well at least with RWD cars. Im not so sure about the FWD ones :S
