I would like to see....a 90 pound limit. I started in 1999. Coopertition, so we were already at 130.
FIRST switched to a 130 lbs weight limit in 1998. In 1997 the weight limit was 120 lbs. The switch to 130 lbs was because of the switch to the 12 volt motorcycle battery which weighed just over 10 lbs.
