    that is true , I have done my weight saving here, 172pds and 5'9", that's extremely good for the most over weight state or close to it. I have three football size greens houses growing 100% organic food too and 1200 chickens and two football size fields of organic cranberries. Biggest in the state.

    I have not seen any greenhouses that are the size of footballs. I could use one or two. If you'd feed some of those chickens some cranberries maybe they would taste like chicken with cranberry sauce. I will try some cranberry sauce when I have my next cat cook off.

    You can get one down to around 476-480 without changing the subframe, but you have to look at every single part and it's gonna cost you.

    I agree. I doubt that anyone here would want to touch you either until you get that mange under control.

    Mine sits atop a dirt bike carrier rated for 350 lbs. ... Over 2000 miles later, still no signs of stress or fatigue on the aluminum rack. Btw, Shoria took off additional 5 lbs & Galfer swears they don't sell rotars machined that way. 457.63, blinking gas light.

    Change the seat, the nuts and bolts, fork over many pesos for diet books, ride naked and go in hock for a set of wheels that look cool and weigh just a few pounds then strap some of that butt ugly plastic luggage on the ass end of the bike that holds a shitload of "stuff" and makes the bike handle like a VW bug in a crosswind.

    That is the first idea you have ever had. Do try to keep up with the rest.

    I'm sure you had in mind to shake one of his other appendages but with all the pesos Trump has the job was already taken.

    Wanted to point out the subframe but you beat me to it. I think that thing was a full 5lbs heavier than a 5th gen before you mount the exhaust up high.

    I was very surprised at how heavy the 6th gen subframe was. Almost like they were designing it for some post apocalyptic mad max type shtuff...

    It is designed and built to support somebody sticking 200 pounds of shit into the factory bags and then dumping their 200 pound old lady on there and then combining that with a 275 pound American sized rider with full ATGAT and the 1/16 of a ton of exhaust cans.
