[QUOTE="motopuffs, post: 153342, member: 22281"] Discussing frame materials in this thread is really beside the point. Honda has proven that they can make a bike with an aluminum frame that works, why would this be any different on a four stroke? teton, you are a little off there...compensating with thicker cross sections of aluminum would be primarily due to STRENGTH consideratons, compressive, tensile, bending. NOT stretch and memory. And it's all about strength to weight ratio, that's the bottom line! Honda started out trying to make a frame that wasn't lighter than a steel one, but had more strength. Four years later, they have done that, and now they can work on lightening the frame up. What have the other mfgs done lately to signinficantly lighten their frames? I'm guessing at this point the aluminum frame has much more potential. [/QUOTE]
