What I'm thinking

Just got an email back from Don; he said a little over 7 lbs. DT you need to work out some lol. Sure the 4:1 would be under 7 lbs. So about 2 lbs lighter that the SI 18.75:1

 

[Sidewinder Jerry]

SI's 5:1 with a 54mm clutch weighs 5 lbs and the 4.28:1 with a 78mm clutch weighs 7 lbs.

Well for you non damn believers! It gave me a reason to inspect my clutch anywho. its 11.0lbs without cover & brackets.

Maybe Don is stronger than he realizes lol

Its built like a tank, you cant see all the cnc machinced steel parts that are thick & heavy. I bet the belt eccentric itself weighs 5lbs.

 

[DieselTech]

Don is full of I bet he didnt even weigh it.
