Indeed it does peek my interest, but I have absolutely no use for it. I've always theorized that a LSR setup would be perfect for hypermiling due to the tall gearing and aerodynamics. I might have to pick this up and see what I can do to make it streetable. |

It would probably be faster with a wheel on the back that wasn't so friggen heavy lol. Why would you put a sportster wheel on there when even the stock Blast rear wheel is lighter? |

Weight is beneficial on the salt. |

Probably the same reason you'll often see people putting lead weights on their swingarm - traction. Get weight on the rear so it stays planted |

I am thinking thank goodness I didn't buy a house in Lumberton. And I feel bad for U4EH. Just kidding I just don't like it to me a Blast is a real fun motorcycle just the way it is. If I was gonna drop and chop a 500 for the flats it would have to be an EX 500 but thats just me. |
