pro-circuit ti pegs are my favorite and weigh much less than stock.

remove both disc guards and chain guard, keep the aluminum piece, just use shorter bolts.

Thanks everyone for your input. I will look into all of the mentioned products.

To answer one question,I'm am not being paid to do this, it's just a friend of mine that doesn't mind spending money. It is his bike (He has several Hondas) and I told him I would help him with the project.

When I removed the stock pipe and put on the WB Carbon fiber I noticed a little difference in the weights. Not as much as I thought there would be. I have not put them on a scale yet.

Thanks again!!!!

when I mentioned removing the chain guard, I mean the counter shaft chain guard, not the chain guide on the swingarm. Just to clairify.

[HRC Rider 45B]

my shop shaved 7 lbs off of a 2004 crf250. carbon pro pipe, renton coil spring, our own ti linkage bushings, pro circuit foot pegs , and a host of ti bolts(engine mounting bolts, linkage bolts, triple clamp blots, handle bar clamp bolts, brake pivot bolt,and some others). next on the list are our own ti axels and swingarm pivot bolt,applied triple clamps, ti engine bolts, and a few misc ti parts like the foot peg retainers, and ti kick start shaft

I believe Talon hubs are heavier than stock... but stronger!

[rydoggy]

You want light, call Chad Watts. He has all of the connections and I personally have seen bikes that he has shved serios weight from. He also has done work on my bike as well. If money isn't a problem. I would highly suggest Watts. Can't get more bling bling then with Chad...

[Terry_Blake]

Thanks again guys.

I just put "RIDE" 20mm triple clamps on the bike. There is one pound difference between stock and RIDE clamps. The RIDE'S are a pound lighter. Also rode it this weekend. They really work good.
