Found this beauty on the WERA site, don't know if this is the right place to post.
Any guesses what the wet weight of this would be?

If it were done well, I would think 420-430 lbs, full of fuel, ready to go to the starting line. I think I could duplicate it for less than 7 grand, including finding a base bike to start with. Ray.

Why would you brace a steel swingarm and not a alloy one? And how long are those intakes which are making the carbs sit up under the tank on a greater angle. Think he mite be going for the straight shot at the valve setup. Bit hard when the bucket receses are there, but ive been wrong before.

steel swingarm is stiffer
alloy one is lighter, hence more responsive rear end

I've seen that bike in person and watched it race a daytona 2 years ago. I have pictures of it on my other pc. It was a very nice bike.
