Default Fast bikes..............................

A friend of my who runs a turbo bike (seeing as there has been a thread going on about turbo bikes ) gets a bit of sponsorship from a guy called Dave Beck, who runs some averagely quick machinery,

heres a new european record by him, no turbo, no nitrous, not even 16valves, just purely normally aspirated

When it says pro stock what exactly are the specs of bikes like that? As far as looks go it looks a long way off stock lol so i presume the engines are running some silly bhp? Whenever i watch the bikes the way they hook up and go just looks frightening, as said fook knows how they hold onto the bloody things!
