Default Raptor Diet

Just weighed my raptor after putting it on a diet. Wet weight (full fuel, oil, coolant, ect) was 414lbs. I managed to get about 12 lbs off and I still have alot to go [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Short term goal is going to be 405lbs so I gotta get 9 more lbs off.

too bad raptors dont have a back up start mechanism (pull,kick) then you could take off the battery and starter.

If I had to guess I'd say they were within a couple pounds of each other. I never weighed them to see but they were pretty close.

Scrambler, I'm working on the kick starter [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

First take a math class [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] I dunno though, maybe lighter rims and tires? maybe carbon fiber rims?

I'm content with my rims. I've got some other ideas that will get me 5lbs for sure. I've been to busy building rocker bars, bumpers, designing exo-skeletons for trucks, and working a full time job to put much time into my bike but I'll hit the 405 mark. It may require me to buy a spool gun and get my MIG welder setup for aluminum but I'll get there.
