That's pretty sweet, about how much does it cost to put together a decent bike for BSB? And isn't BBoz running this round?

Depends on the class.

The RS125GP that we are involved with is about $20K or so.

The top factory bikes are more. If you want to talk about the big bikes then $20K would probably just about get you the works forks!

I see that nvidia girl is there, I bet $10 she doesnt qualify. She was very ordinary last weekend at Donington.

Hmmm, Works forks, Brembo radial monoblocks, the bikes ooze money. In the background one of the Virgin R1's been taken back to the garage after the 30 wait in ferme. They sound so flat muted almost, the big bang engine seemed to working pretty well for them. No news yet on the condition of Michael Laverty, the crash was sickening and happened right infront of us.
