according to bombs site, the viper weighs 470, and the baja weighs 495.

i dont suppose anyone has weighed there stock machine?

i know there are a ton of numbers flying around (supposed loss of 20... i dont think the standard version DS weighed 490? )
and i dont see 20 lbs coming off the baja seeing as how they added MORE to it this year (nerfs/skids etc)

i cant decide between the two...i love the baja i have now, but if i can save anywhere near the 1k difference in msrp, i think ill just go nuts with some powdercoating and possibly some efi [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I think it was Sandman430 that put his DS on a pretty strict diet and stripped allot of unnecessary stuff off it, after all his work he thought that he probably took ~20lbs off or more and still weighed at 490lbs I believe wet. The numbers from bomb may be dry numbers and maybe a few pounds lost in that silly canadian metric system conversion.

 

I have access to scales at work and could prob weigh mine sometime soon. I'll let you guys know what I come up with.

 

ok thats cool. are the realtors ur normal shoes? if so thats gonna put a strain on your scale [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] (i have those tires, and love them, but they are heavy)

 

Well they were but I just put Mud Machine ATs on it today and the realitors are never going back on it. Realitors have no comparison to the MM on any kind of terrain.

 

I weighed mine on a truck scale. They usually seem to be accurate and mine weighed 520 lbs. That was with a full tank of gas.

 

what year/model is your DS? (any add ons like tires/nerfs etc?)

its not a huge deal, but dosnt seem like bombs advertised numbers are correct.
