what are the best ways to shave some weight off an ltr...
from what i read the carb/kickstart shaves about 30 lbs.
what about trimming the wireing harness but keeping the fi and elec start?
i was on a honda before this and my ltr feels alot heavier.
and before somebody says to go on a diet im 140lbs

Okay,


How about hitting the gym. My LTR feels plenty light. It is actually a little heavier than stock after all the add ons.

Lifting weights= everything feels lighter.
