A steel swingarm does not weigh 33lbs. Let alone 33 lbs more than an aluminum swinger. I just dont see that much of a difference

yea no way they dropped 33 pounds by switching the swinger to alum, does anyone know if there is really 33 pounds difference in the models? it seems like they would have to change something pretty drastic to drop 33 pounds
