nigel dabster Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 which are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windlestone Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 Are you two talking about the weight difference between Raga's works bike and Dougie's or are you talking about standard machinary? Specs on standard bikes reckon Montesa only to be 4kgs heavier than a pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsurfer Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Pro without gas is 156, 4rt is 163, You are saying Ragas' bike is 134; I don't think so! The production Raga is 148 with no gas or sidestand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 So you yourself have weighed them side by side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsurfer Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Yes, with a calibrated load cell; used 3 MC straps, one on the crossbrace and one each on the pegs, zeroed the scale and hung the bikes. (Many Witnesses also) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d. sileo Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 The man is speaking the truth.......I was there at the time, along with 200 or 300 of my closest friends..........D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan bechard Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Friends D????? Sorry, could not resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve fracy Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Now I know the results of this weigh in are tainted!! Dom claims to have had some friends there!! Cheers, guys! Not a Mont fan at all, but just the same I am very curious and anxious to give one of the new 4RT's a go! Just hope that we as the consumer are left to have a choice and the FIM do not try and force an all 4RT situation on us! Ride on fellows!

stuhrc Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Pro without gas is 156, 4rt is 163, You are saying Ragas' bike is 134; I don't think so! The production Raga is 148 with no gas or sidestand! Very interesting trialsurfer.....details will certainly be put to use to silence people!! Did you manage to get weights of Sherco/Beta/Scorpa by any chance?? STU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
