Yeah, so maxim could have his mega light weight 300, then find a way to add weight as low down as possible (hunk of lead bolted under engine??) to bring it back up to the limit (I think WSS 600s have lead bits on them to make it fair for the Ducati scrap they have to race with). Center of gravity will be lowered compared to a stock bike but it will still weigh 132kg!!
With regards to the 400 four strokes, Leighton Walker managed to thrash every last ZXR, FZR and RVF with his RGV250 in one of the races at the last round at Brands and he has finished 2nd overall in the MRO SS400 championship. Leighton said on the RGV forum that his bike is making 60ish bhp. Not 85bhp like that FZR which didn't come second overall...
That fancy 400 fontyyy was on about would finish DEAD LAST with the wrong rider on it, similarly, who's to say if Leighton is all that great (i think he is), a faster guy could perhaps have taken the title on his 250 or a slower one could have gotten lapped at every meeting. The rider makes the biggest difference, particularly at club level, i used to race in the 250MZ class in bemsee and the difference in rider ability is enormous in that championship.
So before they 'rejig' the regs, let's have some NSRs out there!!!!!
YEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
