I kinda figured they'd be pretty light. But when I saw Casey Stoner, who isn't a real big lad by any stretch, haul his 125 up off the ground on the weekend, I was rather surprised.........

Fuck me that's light.....

I couldn't ride something that weighed less than me.

(Except when it comes to women, then I'd rather cut of my wang than ride something that weighed more.........)

yeh pretty imprsesive. i'de be guessing the motoGP class is 130-140kg so your looking at say 250hp to 200kg. not a bad power to weight ratio!
