Default lighting up my VForce.

The only thing I hear wrong about my VForce is that it is to heavy. So I started a new project. I remove the stock shifter from the handlebars and built a custom shifter, removed all brackets included in that. Stock bars wear removed and replaced with FLY aluminum bars. stock bumpers are off and are being replaced with AC racing aluminum ones. the tool box and bracket are gone also. Stock muffler is also coming off and being replaced with a HMF slip on. so far 8 pound savings.

Take 2 pounds of your clutch, that'll be as good as 50lbs of off bike.

Instead of shedding the weight from the bike, I am trying to find someone to take it to a 783! That should do the trick.
