:thumbup

 

you could go with a CF tank as well, get ready to spend some big $$$$$ though

 

I don't mean to be an arse, but the Ohlins suspension and likely the Brembo calipers weigh more than stock. I know there's obvious benefits to having those above stock, but weight isn't one of them.

And carbon wheels are a good deal lighter than metal.

That's if you're really seeking weight loss above all else.

 

That's a badazz want list Brudda. Keep the thread active as you do the mods. Big :dollar. BOTM in the future:dunno

Where are you riding?

 

subbed for the fuel tank.

 

Moto 46 in the UK do lightweight alloy RACE subframes, for fvck all $ too! But they are race, which means moving all your electrics, having no support for numberplate, tailight, indicators or pillion. :thumbup

 

I have a good contact at Moto46 too, so give me a shout if I can help...

 

O'rly....:sneaky

 

Sorry, I was talking to the OP.













:lol Let me know what you're interested in of course! :lol

 

No...it's alright...I don't need your help.....I'm off to get into my wetsuit, I'll see you in a couple of weeks.......

Was it petroleum jelly or lard that insulates Channel swimmers from the cold?...:crash

 

:lol I heard it was cat food...

 

Tuna oil perhaps? :finger

 

you need tree repellent first!:fact

 

Yeah anything shark attractive will do...



Seriously, let me know if I can help. I've got a 999 here right now actually with one of their subframes I put on. Just like the one in the picture on Moto46's website.

 

Pm'd...:sneaky

 

I have an FTR subframe. It has a carbon battery tray and is light as hell. :fact

 

Sexy...

 

I try....oh...the bike.

 

You'll have to try much harder....

What are the three mount points for, on the tail of the subframe, behind the exhaust mounts?

 

The furthest back is for the race tail mount, the next 2 are for a cross brace (removable).

 

Ahhh, velly intelesting....

Did you remove the cross brace because your running a side exit exhaust?

 

It was actually removed before it was shipped. I was test fitting it when I took the picture, so I hadn't put it on yet. It's on there now. :thumbup

 

Holy shit that thing is sick!!!:fact

 

Thanks.

It is very strong and Kate Moss light! :crash
