Dont wish to start anything before the series has even got the green light BUT whilst looking at our SS frame yesterday (1st meeting of the TOGS racing group) the question was raised as to why we couldnt chop the rear from our frame ,isthere some reason why the Monster brigade need the benefit of less weight over the rear? As a side issue we managed to install the most important piece of equiptment into the workshop THE FRIDGE ! Butch
Well, you could always cut the entire rear off, from the engine backwards, and attach a carbon fibre self-supporting seat unit, like the Supermono had.
Sorry the subframe on an SS has to stay, you can add to the frame but remove nothing on an SS!
The reason we hadd to allow the tail chop on the Monster is that a lot of the early ones have had a chop, it saves bugger all weight but therwise would exclude lots of cheap entry bikes.
