Default Wet weight of V-force VS Raptor

I dunno, but I been thinking and since the V-Force dosent have an internal tranny full of oil shouldnt its weight not change a whole lot when its wet? I know its got gas to add on but if your dragging you can run with like 1/8th of a tank. Think about it, the rappy has a big ol tranny full of oil. Also, if somone would make a lighter swing arm with a disk brake setup im sure it could shave another 50 lbs. Then shed that monster bumper, get a lightweight radiator, etc... see where im going here? I dont want to set my self up for a big fall, but In a year or two if somone with some money starts playing with one four stroke wars might be a one way beat down.

*edit* if that happens, allow two strokes that are stock length to compete [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

It all falls down to the same question...How much money do you have and how good a rider are you??[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
