dry weight of XB12Scg = below 400lbs

This one looks lighter since the stock (VERY HEAVY) muffler is gone... probably in the 380lbs...

For reference, the FZ is 425lbs dry.

Wheels are stock (I have the same ones in blue).

Chain drive is indeed to handle the additional torque... belts are much more robust today compared to a few years ago (mine has a lifetime warranty on it), but I guess this dude did not want to take any chances :)



Some dyno graphs:

11psi boost:

Noticed water injection on the chart as a variable.. Like the auto chain tensioner!
OMG 11 psi!
