looks nice, and i'm sure riding it is fun. but i don't think it's faster than an rs125. i'm biased against four-stroke engines... if i were to build a bike with 17" wheels and for large tracks, i'd build me a rs125 (or similar) chassis with a 500cc v2 two-stroke.
my bike is intended for small kart tracks and indoor tracks, where a supermoto or even a pitbike is faster than a (full-size) racebike.

I'm not saying that my friends RS monster is faster then a true RS125... I know that a true RS125 is faster... rode one before!
But to be honest my friends RS bike with the 17" wheels is great on kart tracks. The suspension is great and handles better then a mini would ever handle! It is a TRUE GP bike... I thought a 17" wheel RS wouldn't be able to hang with me on a tight kart track... but another member in our club has a RS frame with a 80cc motor in it and it will dust me in the corners! It handles so good and weight transfer is easy... it is just like racing a NSR, just a little bit taller. This member use to be okay on a NSR, could beat him with no worries... but now that he has a true GP bike it is crazy how well it handles in the corners.

But it ain't faster than a Mid Bike. The torque they produce off the tight corners is a killer.

What mid bike are you talking about is killer out of tight corners????
