Im going to fill all frame and swing arm cavities with #10 lead shot and fill in any areas of the extended swing arm with lead ingots that is possible and Im going to replace the seat with one made of lead and try to attach some to the bottom of the frame , is there any other place you guys use  Im trying for 90+ kg any help would be appreciated , any other ways to increase traction anyone tried with sucess ( for salt only ) is it possible to to fill in the wheel cavities with lead without causing trouble ???

ummm I dont think I would add anything to the "Wheel" except for balancing purposes.
 
 I would think you would ask for a whole lot of  trouble if you added to the wheel cavaties.
