I’ll run window vents with pipe work to the hole behind my seat to try and keep me cool in the summer 😂

But I hope when I go on the weigh bridge I’ll be over the moon with the overall saving

Have you got a guesstimate louckie?

Obviously anything sub 1000kg is amazing.

Still need to get mine on the weighbridge but won't be for a month or so as up on sale stands still .
I'm sure you'll be happy with the result . Definitely taken a lot of weight out of it

@NafemanNathan that sounds dreamy not 100% sure it can be done on the evo wheels without carbon fibre and without a Kiky seat

I’ll do the boot and 2ws next and then see about looping steering rack and abs removal
