  1. So...

    2010 848 recently ditched 2.6kg by going to a lithium battery.
    Tonight we removed standard rear sub-frame and popped in a Alloy unit.
    Anyone care to guess the weight saved this time
    (much more exciting than watching MotD)

    :)

  5. original sub frame 3.08 kg
    new one 1.53kg...

    Heat shield got binned when we put on race fairing... :)

    All in all, the bike's lost about 9lbs over the winter; which is about the same as I have put on !
     
  6. Have you tried using Helium in your tyres instead of air?
    Massive weight saving so I am told.:Woot:
     
  7. Bag of flour?
     
  8. In the tires? thats daft... oh unless its that self raising stuff!!! clever:upyeah:
