Default Whats it take to get under 340lbs

Well, actually I am one of em. I have done the whole shee thing, and am quite through with it. I am a lover of 4-strokes now. But I still give credit where credit is due, and if you want to have the fastest thing in a straight drag race there is no denying its cheaper and for the most part easier to do on the shee!

I priced titanium for a wheelie bar once at $33 a foot last summer! Needless to say I went with box aluminum.
