dajogejr Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 Put it in a stand up chassis and street race in Miami... Quote
rubberneck Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 Naw brutha i want a sit down bike, plus if i had a stand up bike i couldn't use my oversized bowls cause everybody knows they aint needed on no stand up bike. Quote
locogato11283 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 now you fuckers have me curious as to what my bike weighs. its not that light, but all the BS is gone. i dont even run rear brakes.. my swingarm and a arms are heavy i know that.. but my bike gets rocked on the jumps.. id be very surprised if mine was anywhere near 300 pounds.

Stellar Performance Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 Thats probably not too far off if you have drag arms, drag axle, etc. When I say 30-35 pounds, thats a bare +10 hillshooter chassis, full chromoly. No arms/stem/etc. And thats about right for a lightened stock frame to weigh around 35 pounds. Quote
lowriderb Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 mine was weighed in at 261 with a full tank of fuel (about 1 1/5 gal.) and my helmet sitting on the seat, ready to ride. Quote
docjcwatson Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 SHHHH... Fat boy secret. Don't lose weight, build bigger... :biggrin: Oh hell no! Dave I can't believe you posted that for all to see! Loco, we need to delete that post! Put it in a stand up chassis and street race in Miami... Now that's funny. :biggrin: Quote
docjcwatson Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 Not to hijack this topic or anything, but does anyone here no where I can get a 12'' titanium swingarm??? I think it has a lil to do with the weight of a drag bike right... $$$$$$$$$$ Quote
shanYE west Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 From the looks of those cr500 reeds in your other post I would say you are building a plenty big motor already :thumbsup: lol thats just my twin blaster motor... thats nothing serious... lol Quote

I think it has a lil to do with the weight of a drag bike right... sandtoyz unlimited in glendale has one in stock but look to spend anywhere from 1500 to 2000 bucks for one of those babys........they are light as hell tho Quote

Take it out to Mike Foleys. Hes got a set of race car scales. It will tell you how much weight is on each wheel. You can adjust the suspension to get the weight where you want it on each wheel. It works pretty good. My Drag banshee weighed in a 237lbs ready to race. I also weighed my CR500 on them. It weighed in at 250lbs Quote
