[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 139345, member: 597"] I have seen the RFM brackets removed, and not damaging at all, but probably not an absolute necessity. In fact there is not much that can be trimmed off the bike........We do plan on changing the head stock to an alloy one, this will save some weight for sure........ To watch Cam throw the bike through the corners was amazing..........I felt that on my twin racer with all the mods to the suspension that I could out turn others with featherbed framed bikes.........Phil Canning who owns the bike now has said the same..........Looking at the Flash in the corners against very skilled riders, I would say that is strong evidence of same. I would be interested to take that bike and mine to a track day and test the bikes back to back to see what differences exist.........This will almost certainly happen at some point. Like I said, the bike will be coming up here for a thorough going over........There seems to be little info out there on the Godet machines, I'm not sure these are trade secrets......The engines do have many upgrades from a normal Comet engine, I think the bottom end is quite bullet proof........The top end could be an area for some upgrades, as I believe they still use a hemispherical combustion chamber........That alone is a bit antiquated from a power perspective.
