Husky is claiming a weight of about 202.4 pounds. Hopefully they are exagerating that weight, like everyone else does. if not they won't be racing until they pork up a little. 3. Minimum weight requirements a. 0-125cc........... 194 pounds b. 126 -250cc....... 213 pounds c. 251-450cc....... 220 pounds
...dear santa...... I'm very commited to my '07 for the time being. Otherwise- I'd be cleaning out my 401k (what's left of it ) paying everything off and being the first old fart on the block with one. Cheese and crackers! ......that thing haunts my dreams..... *snivel*
.....standing on a ledge, outside my building... Oh- great, reinforce my fiscally suicidal spending ideas. ....."back-off man, I'll take the plunge, I mean it!!!".....
I think it's time the AMA revises the weight limits to encourage more weight savings. If Husky can do it on a production machine without all the 'unobtainium' then no reason not to lower it. I'm so use to slinging around a 260lb bike (EXC) and my 610 I wouldn't know what to do with 202lbs. It would be fun to figure it out though. Beauty bike by the way.
If that bike weighs 202 lbs., I'm a fried banana. All bike makers, sans KTM, fudge by at least 10 lbs.
PV, I promise you its really lite, I swear it feels lighter the my kids RM125. the front wheel was locked and chocked but lifting the rear up into a nose wheelie was a cinch, which could also be front end weight bias set up. you can bet that ready to ride will see @215 (hopefully) R
under weight can also mean placing weight where the rider wants it, been done like that in all forms of racing. (the 09 TC250 is a gem!!!)
Rob- Just got off the phone with Josh and Paul. OMG- the #'s and rating the race-team is getting from the motor and more are shocking. Even if we get a 'tamed down' version for reliabilty, it's stil gonna rip. My 401k has never been in such jeapordy. And I don't even race! *gulp* Help.
If you mean that they will be able to add weights post production to meet the rule, they won't, it's on the AMA cant do list.
F the AMA I want my 250 fix I really think that despite my tank like weight I could rail on that thing!!!
I'll race you on my '09 WR125! A guy I've ridden with is getting the TC250, so hope to get a ride this Spring!
race????,,,, shoot.... let's just ride,,,,in some green NE woods we finally got some rain here and I am on light duty for a bit longer,,but my real excuse is my suspension being serviced at the moment(givin LTR a shot) .......I wonder how many will be brought in/produced....this bike is real history because it really is the machine that is going to put Husky back on the MX map,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,how about a 350cc version........
wait a second 09 WR125???? you gettin one???? that will be another history maker but not here in the good ole US...
