I think it would be appreciated by all if the comedy were left out of this thread.
The one-piece rear seat weighed as follows: Rear Bottom - 11.0 Rear Bottom Support - 6.0 Parcel Shelf - 1.5 Rear Back - 36.5 Belts (all) - 7.5 Total - 62.5 Stock steel wheels weigh around 19 pounds each. Replacing them with readily available 12 pound alloys saves a total of 28 pounds (and it's rotating mass, which really helps acceleration and braking... and unsprung weight, which helps ride quality and handling over rough surfaces). |
