[QUOTE="TomInPA, post: 1148494, member: 21394"] A few more pounds can be shaved by using a Lithium-Iron battery, and the comes off the high-front area of the bike where it counts. Also, don't forget to use block-off plates and get rid of the AIR system. The FJR is not heavy to ride, but it can be a bit top-heavy if it gets off balance at a stop. I kind of agree with Bounce that you can find a bike that is lighter but is not a ST. A Ducati Multistrada weighs 494 wet. That is a lot lighter, but you might not find it easier to ride or stand.
