Southside Motorsports Posted June 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 I am not yet doing subframe replacement. but i do drill and lighten the stock subframe. I can take off around 12 lbs. avg. which is excellent being i don't replace the subframe. Let me know if you're interested and I'll give you the address to send the frame and money order to.

Josh A. Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 you only take off 12lbs of the whole frame?lol i did that and the only thing ive done is welding class lol, all i did was chop the rear of the subframe,silencer mounts, etc., all the stock wiring metal thats there,replaced the big gusset behind the a arms, SHaved every single braekst that wasnt used, all plastic mounts, cut out the head pipe brackets and replaced them, and replaced a few spots of heavy tubing and cut off lots of shit, my frame weighs 33 punds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southside Motorsports Posted June 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 You did your own frame mod then.. the least amount that i can take off is 12lbs and that's if i don't touch the subframe. If you want to knock someones business do it on another forum because no one around here likes that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh A. Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 I wasnt knocking your business at all, im tryin to get the same thing goin that you are but with polishing, polishing can be done by anyone, but its easier for them to pay then do it theirself,cuz its time consuming and they might not have the tools, but with minimal skills you can very easily take 12 pounds off a frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chemical Castration Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 are you the uy with the black and baby blue banshee No I'm not. My bike is still being built and it'll hopefully be ready for the Planetsand drags in Rocky Point. I posted a really old pic in the Images section if you wanna check it out. All I'm gonna say is that when it's done it's gonna be a little more powerful than a bike with pipes and reeds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southside Motorsports Posted June 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Thanks, lefty I appreciate you sticking up for us shop owners.

Southside Motorsports Posted July 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 ok, well i would drill you subframe, eliminate all gussets, cut some more tube off the front end including the shock cross member, shave your head light brackets, and cut the motor mount tubes down, cap off all cut tubes, finish grind, sandblast and prime it for $400.00 total. Let me know and i will get you the address to send the frame and money order to. (you pay shipping) i recommend UPS.
