The weight savings of titanium over not eating breakfast the day of the ride ends up about the same for me...plus I save lots of money.

but just think of how light they can make your wallet. The financial weight savings of Ti v/s breakfast there is no comparison. Just look at how many pounds Larry in GB could get rid of.

What about Kryptonite? Can't weigh too much could it? :roll:

Terry, Kryptonite is heavy, the availability of it is what makes it rare. Now if Larry were to spend pounds on kryptonite for breakfast, superman would leave him alone. Besides, Larry likes eggs benedict. If Larry were to spend 5 pounds on eggs benedict for breakfast, would he be 5 pounds lighter?

I like those drilled washers. Maybe get a few of those and that would lighten the bike up :lol:

I heard where the new Airbus A380 has 8 tons of titanium.
