Quick update... still chopping and weighing, but the rain has meant I've had little time to spend on it.

Here are some of the findings:

Complete Hindle titanium exhaust and can: 3.8 kgs

One OEM can, over 3kgs!

...still going... hopefully have it much more ready [at least enough for a track day] in a couple of months!

HURRY UP!!! GET MORE MEN! I want to see this beauty on the track (but I'll settle for the trailer).

The Gen2 exhaust is even heavier!!!!!

I was shocked!

Only in Marrickville, maybe you should have turned that blinker area into a large air ram for the main straight Scary

Big thanks to LEGEND!

Now my bike looks like this!

Maybe I should start a guessing competition about how much it's gonna end up weighing! Roll

**01busa** · 14-08-2010, 06:46pm

230kg full of fuel race ready Pi_thumbsup

Bet you $1 it'll be at least 5kgs less WITH a full tank!???
Are you on?

14-08-2010, 07:08pm

I reckon about 215kgs ready to ride. plus rider of course, but that should be minimal if Pan has a haircut!

Wasn't a gen 1 only 217kg (only Lol2

) stock????

if it comes in at 230kg I think you're doin' it way wrong! Idiot2

maybe if you jump up in the air while you're riding it , it will be lighter?

Have you started shaving weight off your gear yet? sanding the helmet back to paper thin? Maybe painting on leathers to your bare skin? Swap those big heavy boots for thongs??? Gloves? who needs gloves!

There ya go. Just saved you another 15kg. Easy Pi_tongue
