Well after an awesome weekend I have gone on a weight saving exercise and discovered the cheapest option out there.

After what seems like forever trying to sort out an ali swingarm, I have taken the back out of the bike again, thinking I'm looking to shave a few hundred grams, good start.

Have been getting nagged about cleaning it, so while I had easy access... And wouldn't you know it, I think I might have saved another 9-10Kg.
Thanks for the idea Bimjob! (have I spelt that right? B or R?)

Not yet, the exhaust is the next project.
This was just removing what looked like 15 years of dirt, and all the ivy growing in it :)
