Do I need the headlight buckets?
They don't appear to add any structual integrity and we would loose another 4-5 pounds. Whatcha think?

I thought about wieght loss. Kinda have to really start shedding the steel before you actually do anything.

A 200# passenger on board cost me half a second over the course of a 1:30 sec a/x run.

KT

I've got a box with about 35 lbs of shittage (street gear) out of the front trunk thus far. I'm gonna run some tubes that will put a good part of that back in.

I was thinking of relocating the gutters if I nuke the buckets.

I've run quicker with a passenger more than once.
