Help!

I'm on the brink of selling my 2007 FXR as it just feels to damn heavy for all-day riding (bike comes in at 34.5lb with Wotan fork, XT and hope / DT5.1 wheels).

Before I do this I was wondering if anyone can tell me what the weight is of a LARGE 2007 FXR with Ti-coil Curnutt XTD (300lb Ti spring)???

If it turns out to be not too bad then I may stick with it and concentrate on trying to lose weight from other areas...

How much do the 2009 AIR Curnutt FXR frames weigh in Large (without 150mm rear end or brake arm?)

I love my Foes but the weight really is becoming a drag on longer rides.... what sort of weights have people got their FXR's down to (and I mean real weights with pedals included!) ???

thanks

Just over 8 pounds. The Wotan is heavy. You'd save a pound going with a float 36.

I have a XCT-5 w/ Ti coil shock and the frame is just over 8lbs too. The bike's built with pretty burly components for AM and weighs in @ 31lbs. I could probably get it down to 28lbs if I really wanted to but I don't. I don't see any reason why you couldn't get your bike down to @ the same weight as mine.
