2005 Rocket Sport

[JoJo]

Hi All,
I am working on as much weight reduction as possible for my 05 Rocket. I have it torn down and I need some input. I currently have a Jardine exhaust that I plan on keeping.
Also I have a set of BST Carbon wheels, Carbon Dry tail and front fender, and Ramair. I am looking at replacing the triple tree with a billet setup, but I need to know if any of you have done
that mod, and have a source for the tree. Any input about shedding weight would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Joe

Another idea I have been thinking about. Never came further than thinking and searching some pictures though...
More info than the pictures I don't have, unfortunately.

You can replace the front and rear fenders with plastic or aluminum (don't know a source). After that you'll have to find an ounce here or there cuz the rest of the bike is kinda tinker proof.

Eat less. Seriously. Instead of spending more on lightweight components, spend less on food. Dropping 10kg in weight is certainly achievable for most people and would be a win/win/win.

Replace the OEM batterie by a Lithium batterie. Saves appr. 5kg...
