I really need to get out of this thread and do some house work today but the subtle humor is killing me. Just a few more pages.

So have you put the CAE Ultra shifter in yet (you know, to further reduced weight )?

I have not. But it has this many of weights:



I'm too lazy to go look up all the weights of the parts being replaced/deleted and do the math, but I think we estimated it to save about 3 pounds. But it should add about 5 pounds of pure ballin' factor.

I have not. You mean like the fenders and stuff? I eventually just want to go with carbon, which is why I haven't gutted my doors either.
