lmao once again sorry rhyso. To be ohenst for the weight u loose i would rather have the look of the seats

no worries mate lol

you'd be surpsied how much the seats do actually weigh!  the rear bench is fairly light but the backrests are fairly bulky

just fold them flat to lower your centre of gravity  :laugh: :laugh:
