Weigh your pieces you're removing.. I'd be interested how much weight you shed during the whole process.

Well I can weigh those peices but you also have to take into thought the weight of the glass you put back in. I know stock dry weight is 390 pounds. I am going to weigh my ski just before I add gas and fire it up and see what my dry weight is after all the glass work and motor work.

So are you using the stock seat and hood-cowl? Your build has my gears in my head turning. Does anyone know off the top of there head what a stock HX weighs?? I'm sure I could google that if I wasn't lazy. Lol

Says 390lbs dry but will carry a 250lb payload. Lol I think 300lbs done could be doable?

Stock seat yes but no I am shortning the hood 6" to match the 6" I took out of the top deck. Stock hx dry weight is 390 pounds.

I don't think 300 or less is possible but maybe 350. Going from the 720-787 will add some weight

You're giving me ideas on what to do with some of this crap in my yard!

Contact carterB if you want the rocker nose peice I am using. I cut 6 inches off the whole nose then 6" out of the top deck and moved the front section back the 6 inches and the rocker nose peice pretty dang close then. He laid it up thin which made it flexible and allowed it to be close and fit with minor modification. For the nose cut areas refer to the pics of the build so far.

I also cut the 5 inch platform off the back just behind the rear access hatch.

so exactly what are those? Look like HX top decks? Are they light weight? Did u race them or something? If they are light weight want to sell one of the more complete ones in pic #2 with a hood? I have to many projects already with my two B1's and JK LS3 swap but you know what they say if the price is right ya gotta do it.
