probably weigh about the same as a trials bike with 600/1000 super light engine

This was reported a few days ago.

atypical for Louts they were talking about a high powered engine (200bhp).

I doubt it's going to be great. Just look at Lamborghini's effort.

It's being built by the same people that did their Le Mans car. There should be more pics next week

Only thing about Loads Of Trouble Usually Serious.

I don't expect it to be the most reliable thing the world.

[UnspeedySam]

There seems to be a lot of car engineers listed and no bike ones. This concerns me

We will all be jizzin our pants when this comes along but, thats all we'll be doing. Carbon fibre tank, aircraft grade steel, titanium? Better get buying the lottery tickets or get yourself a ouija board and start making those pacts with the dark entities if you want to be the owner. Meanwhile, i'm off to look for some rich widows.
