When I installed mine I put everything that came off in a box and it all weighed 13 lbs...and Im guessing that the additional stuff that went on was a few lbs....so its safe to say the kicker saves about 10lbs. I didnt remove the starter gear from the crank yet, but that is supposed to add some power since the motor will rev quicker (fyi - yoshi doesnt say anthing about removing the starter gear in the instructions but if you call them they will tell you about it)
