Now here's an interesting discussion. In a straight line race.....with rider of similar weight and skill.....which would win? All eligible machines assumed to be in standard factory guise without modification and note, none of them silver (and please don't judge speed on looks alone). .

And....does anyone own a race track ideally situated near or in the Midlands UK ? We'd just need it for an hour max. Cafe on site would be a bonus. Ta muchly.

No figures, sorry, but without hesitation I would like to be the first to offer a CX500! Step forward CTB ! 🤣👍

Maybe the competition entry prize of a cadburys crème egg might sway you? This means you get the prize even for just entering and not necessarily winning. A no brainer.

I can offer the XBR and it really depends where you take it. Three Sisters at wigan and I reckon the XBR would be in with a shout. a 'normal' race track and I think it would be the cb500 but if the riders brave enough the CX could throw in a few surprises.

Could be game on then. The airfield is a great idea Steve - where's it located or is it a top secret location? Thanks for the specs Paul.

Less easy in practice. They get a bit funny about that sort of thing. Just pick one. Race em at first light, before they open, then bugger off quick before the rozzers turn up 🤣👍 I always ask for forgiveness with such things, rather than permission.
