Low Hanging Fruit Pt2

[zudikaszrx]

I have run a Votex sprocket on the rear and had about 20,000+ miles out of it, the chain gave up before the sprocket did. Sprocket still looked decent.

After going through the original low hanging fruit thread that never made it past Ms. BST , I've tracked enough on the spreadsheet to map out 51lbs that can be dropped for about 2500.00 (that includes a Ti Exhaust). I'll post up the spreadsheet later as it is focused on the 1200, but what I'm looking for are the other things that I am missing. I'm looking mainly for rotating mass and unsprung weight until I get my own gut eliminated. It just seems that when I had 40lbs lined out, I'd come across a thread in another forum that was about something lightweight, just not in this thread (the clutch was the most recent one).

Anyways, so I'll have the spreadsheet up tomorrow, if there is something on there I'm missing please let me know.

Thanks,
Stan

All I've got is a heavily modified glock (grip wise). I went through too much to get my Kahr to trade it away

correct. any (real) magnesium mag (or carbon) will save POUNDS off unsprung weight, & is likely the largest single loss you of weight can get on the bike (short of a Ti pipe over a stocker?)

Also, if you buy Dymag, a Talon sprocket is OEM f/Dymag. It's what comes w/the wheels...

TWFBR is my friend Billy. He's second or third in command at SuperSprox in the US.
The steel I'm sure will be an economical alternative, and/or it may be lighter than their alum/steel one.

The Steel line is for the economical people out there trying to save money. (Pete is Correct) But the Stealth Aluminum and Steel combo is still lighter and reliable.

And Pete that is second in command.....

How about switching from a regular battery to a lithium one like a Shorai...thats a big weight reduction

It's on the list. However rotating mass trumps dead weight unless it is a lot of dead weight (18lb exhaust). So wheels would be a higher priority.
