How much weight do you save with a gun drilled over stock? Is it worth it?

 

it must be worth alot, i heard the way chooses bike runs its worth it! and his is not drilled, just a lot lighter!

 

Factory axle with steel sprocket star weigh's about 19lbs. My gun drilled axle with aluminum star weighed 8lbs. Its worth it to me.

 

After watching alot of racing in the last few months. The light weight components are well worth there weight in gold. I have been seeing bikes with alot less horsepower take out bikes with a ton more power. Good example is Finishlines small Yzf. Everything on the bike is lightened in some way. There bike is a stock bore Yzf, with cams, piston, and headwork. Its been giving big bore bikes fits for months now.

 

We will be working on new light parts at sandfest, talking to a few vendors about custom parts coming up!!!!!

 

I will be R&Ding sum new axles next week also, I hope they hold up!!!!!! Randall had to dodge one this week allready LOL

 

We're out the door in 5 minutes. No need to wish us a safe trip because we won't be able to read it until we get back....by then it's too late!!
Eric will be assembling the rear axle in the enclosed trailer on the way...just kiddin.
May God be with us....

WoW I can't believe the power you guys are getting out of these bombers. Hope to meet up with a few of you guys at the sand dunes this winter so I can see one of these big bores run.
Also where is a good place to get a light axle or a gun drilled axle for a decent price ?
