Bike weight

[strokerlmt]

I know I have taken at least 70 lbs off the weight of a stock T-100 Bonneville. Those are just the bits I have been able to weigh. I need to get to a weigh station or trash place with the bike wet and weigh the sucker.
I will tell you though the lighter the bike gets the more I like the way it handles from low speeds to 120.

I for one would like to know what your bike weighs. Truck scales might not be the best. They are only accurate to within 20lbs.

If you have a bathroom scale. you can weigh each wheel and add em up. That would get you there.

Please tell us what you did and include some photos....sounds interesting.

Or did you just dump your skinny-ass girlfriend? oke:

I took off my reflectors.

 

[strokerlmt]

I found 9 more lbs/parts/one muff.....so 79
so my dry weight should be less than 365lbs.

Personally I've lost 60 pounds, does that count? But wait, I've also added a sidecar thus giving three points of contact......hmmmm....

That's what these bikes should weigh! Nice goin' Lach, you've done a hell of a job with that bike.

I want to see! I can't imagine how fun this bike would be at 365. You have a list of what you have done?

Alloy rims
alu headers to one muffler
chopped rear and front fender
chopped wiring harness
no side covers
alu swingarm
No lower rails
Billet oil coolers
The muffler wish bones rear peg holders are half solid pipe
I cut half off. I can stand on them with pegs and jump up and down and they don't move.
No air box custom sprocket cover

Uh... no; but it counts in the P:W when you're ridin' it! Now you just need one of those 1087 kits and cams. Then you can go Duc hunting. :rocks:
