I sold rims for a company in california...
They always boasted faster lap times...
Nobody could dispute this claim.
But we knew it was rubbish.
Dont get your feathers in a knot.
Yes the bike is lighter...
But we could not prove our claims either...
Nobody could prove nothing at that time...
We think it should do x amount is what it comes down to.
Thoughts anyone... 
Reducing rotating mass lowers elapsed times no matter how you look at it. If whatever object is easier to spin because its lighter its obviously going to be more efficient no matter how you look at it. Its laws of physics, doesn't have anything to do with producing real numbers because to many factors come into play when you look at real numbers.

Basically what I was saying is that in a vacum, reducing rotating mass and weight will make any machine more efficient. When trying to relate that to real world numbers, too many other factors come into play to get an honest comparison.

Even more pics. Don't mind the junky garage. I'll get around to cleaning it up one of these days.

No issues yet. I do have to work on my suspension though. Ever since I lowered and strapped it, it just hasn't been right.
