I don't have equipment to weld titanium
At 13.7 ounces though it's pretty darn lite compared to 1 lb 15.1 ounces

Yeah, that is a small detail, but part of a big gain.
Most of us don't consider a lb very much...until you add up just how much weight you have taken off your bike, little by little.
Always impressive sir.
Can you tig titanium the same as aluminum or stainless, or does it require something else?
Impressive as usual man. And if the bike won't roll off that one we'll all want one.

17.00 off e bay motors, 1 sanding disc 5.00
Two large washers 3.00, 1/8 can of paint 1.50, my time = free to me. $26.50
I like the mounting bracket weight reduction C10 , that thing is a heavy piece stock , and think the stands new foot is a great idea . I was thinking of drilling the mounting bracket out a bit , but am too lazy for now . I never thought of removing material from the back of piece , that is smart !!

That's funny, Tim McAmis just uploaded a YouTube video about this very subject. Tim and his guys are the best in the biz.

I use Brocks adjustable side stand. My ride height varies between low (street) and slammed (track) and its great to be able to make adjustments so the bike doesn't get tippy. It's a really nice piece and a bargain at $179

Sorry, for the price of CF, it has to look good or just forget it. $750!!!!
I've been eyeing that bloody CF stand for some years now ... straight away I'd refit it with some quality titanium bolts . I think it looks a bit crazy , but I do like it , and Montgomery says it can be used for standard height .
