Ha ha ha, Well the bike is going on diet, she was 172 kg at snetterton. So 20 ish kilos to loose. Already lost 2.5kg with a new battery and aluminium arm will be another 2kgs. Roll on anglesey

My alli arm only made a kilo or so difference

[848spence]

Well a kilo is a kilo. Still saving a bit of weight. Has no one got one lying in the garage. Skids did I not read a post a while back dating you had 3 in the garage?

Richard I have the odd SS alloy arm but also have a frame and engine in the shed that goes with it and the only monster one I have is from a S4 with the later chassis and is destined for the 620 Monster Dark that I bought off Steve Mason Last year

I've got an 888 one that will fit the early Monster.

Its got a gouge on the inside where one of the sprocket nuts came loose but it got me home from the middle of France with no problem. Its not pretty but can't see a 55bhp 600 stressing it as much as a laden 888!
You might need to file/machine down the chain adjusters to fit inside it though.
If you PM me your email address I'll try to dig it out of the loft and take some pics, or if you're passing through Alton one evening your wlecome to take a look.
Cheers, Paul
