Ronnie I dont think there is any ,not that im aware of anyway , possible your mate Kent riches ( airtech) may have some numbers ? good luck I reckon maybe a few points lower than a stock busa , regardless of what ppl say ,a lot have had problems with the toy bodywork for several reasons ,including noonan ,amo and jason , cavet emptor , anyway good luck in your search for speed
actually i sort of think that it may have been your mate, kent , who pm`d it to me, still searching, will post if i find.. yes, i was told by a number of blokes at bub`s , that thay appear to misbehave at speeds around and over 220mph, but larry forstall`s comment said a lot, he should know,, having said that, it is still interesting to see catalyst`s stuff at the pointy end, also says something , havent made a decision on which way to go yet, still doing my calculations on the ever elusive, pursuit of speed

Crikey mate, you better make your mind up soon, you only have eight months to go till the next meeting at LakeG. Ay!
if it`s eight months, i wont be there, but would be in 11months (march 09) , that is with the zx12,,, i havent decided on which bodywork to put on the suzuki that i am building, and i am in no hurry , if it`s ready by next years event, well and good, if not, will run it at 2010 speedweek
