Thats one good reason for not fitting a 2008 fireblade engine,the bonnet bulge has to be that big,you cant see where you are going

What I don't understand is how you fit that lot in a bike? If the airbox is that big, where does the petrol tank go?

Can the rider even see over the top of it when it's in a BEB?

And I thought my bonnet bulge was too big

on bikes, most of what you see of the tank is just covering the air box, there is no fuel in that bit!

If you think that a bike engine starts about 6 inches off the ground and is waist height at the top.

It's an ugly old bump, but I'm guessing it's the same car I've seen racing at Croft last year. HERE

Was a pretty potent little machine..

That ump looks ugly,i wonder if he got it from MFI before they went bust.
