i keep hearing about how much less alot of parts off the 2004 weight than on the older modles. what parts give you the best weight savings? headlight, hubs, etc ? also is there a significant weight savings in the hipertec carbon fiber wheels compared to the stock wheels? i would like to try and get my quad under 450 full.

 

the triangle motor mounts save a half pound. there like 18 dollars for both. go to a standard prm grab bar theres a pound. switch to aluminum rear sprocket theres another pound. the aluminum upper a arms save about 4-5 pounds. there are plenty of bolts to switch to lighter ones, just switching some to stainless saves a little and going to aluminum on others will save 2/3 the weight. the headlight is worth the change even if it wasn't lighter, but it is.

 

The 04 rear hubs wont inerchange easily because the spline length is different. Like sandman said upper a-arms and front motor mount's are the biggest weight savings.

does anyone know the model number 74?? located on the serial number label for the 2004 bajaX? I am trying to find a part number for the CDROM or printed parts catalog.

 

im working on that, both paper copy and computer file.
