I'll have to ask the wife if I am leaving the truck at the airport or bringing it back... If I have it I'll drive it, else Vulcan time... I am not looking forward to that... it handles like crapola and has a bald front tire...
OK I'll see you there. Good to see you after long time.
Cool.
Srinath.

You ARE talking about the bike, right?
Title: The YSR...
Post by: The Buddha on March 10, 2004, 03:16:09 PM
Yup the YSR... has been lightened... it now weighs ~13 grams... and has a 50HP YZ80 motor punched to 175CC in it. It also has a 6 inch wide rear wheel to handle all that power... yup... 10 inch diameter 6 inch width I believe a 200 - 45 X 10 slick is on it... He'd paint it but that might make it heavier... so he's not painting it.
Cool.
Srinath.
