instead of chopping down parts or removing necessary items why dont you just add a exhaust? or better yet a hi comp piston?

If your taking about your Yfz you can convert it to a kicker and remove the starter, battery, starter gears and strip the wire harness and remove the fan.

You can shed weight but it gets expensive, don't know how physically fit you are but it is A LOT easier for you to shed 15 pounds then it is for your fourwheeler.

6' at 160 is definitely not fat! What kind of quad are you looking to put on a diet? Y ou can start by removing all unnecassary parts. Without wanting to spend any money for billet goodies and other things, it will be a tough road.
