The seat wieghs 20lbs!! , then their is the heavy OILTANK, then the frame ofcorse is over engineerd. they need to go with a 520 chain,and reduce the size of the Bolts in the whole machine, cause they are all over kill. This would bring the DS650 in the same weight class as the Rappy, but it wil also share its share of faults like the Rappy does with its design aswell.
I say keep the BAJAX for us big guys, and then give the average size riders thier 400lbs DS he has been begging for!

Biggerisbetter, from your name, I can't believe you don't want smaller and lighter???LOL
Nope, see... I to realized that the DS frame was over-engineerd but instead of spending $$$$$ with trying to shave wieght, I chose to Stuff more HP into the frame[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Now THE FRAME has the right amount of HP![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img], thus is now engineerd perfectly...
I can sympathize with the DS......, Were both Big-Boned[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Look, I'm not here to force anyone to believe anything. You can look back a year form now and see what I have said was either truth, or B.S. I don't care.....I want people to speak up, that's my goal, that is what is happening, it gets things accomplished. I you want to go back to the 90's and have the 1 trick pony Banshee and that's it. Lets all turtle up and let them tell us what we want. That will be great, or maybe we can lett all the enviro-nuts, close up all our land so we can't ride....even better. Get it?
The Phantom....Believe the hype, stay tuned for me to be vindicated....
