Titanium clutch basket nut and front sprocket nut from Schitnz Racing.
More titanium fasteners on the way for the heel guards and a few fairing bolts.
The carbon fiber front fender is over
a pound lighter too.
I also have real carbon fiber heelguards for when the ti bolts show up.
The 520mm chain/sprocket coversion lost over 2lbs(was 525 stock)

Next will be ti rotor bolts, fork pinch bolts, and currently in search of titanium axles.
Carbon fiber wheels and aftermarket rotors soon too.
Weight continues to fall off this thing, little by little.

Those liter bikes were almost too light to begin with...get it too light an every gust of wind from a passing vehicle will blow you off the road...

This is actually true, and I have noticed it on a few bikes over the years, start dropping enough weight, and you're readjusting suspension...and getting blown around in your lane on the highway from big trucks, and more so than before.
 
Sae performance has the axles and a few Ti bolts. Yesterday i ordered from them the stand bolts and i also have purchased and mounted the Ti front sprocket and washer from them. The rear rotor bolts and drilled sprocket nuts i buyed them in Pro Bolts the front rotor bolts they havent made them yet

Cool, are you keeping up with the total weight loss?
I didn't know they had a titanium front sprocket either, I'll have to look up the weight difference vs steel.
Thank you sir!
