When I get get the money i would to see if I can get my 13' with stock fairing down close to 500 lbs, without spending a shit load of money$$$ full exhaust, lighter batt, rear fender, that might be 30 lbs but that still off by 30 + lbs.

500lb is a tough order without spending big $$$. I'd like to see your plan.
I'm planning on a full CF body in 2016 and still don't think I can hit 500....

There's a hundred small items that weigh a couple ounces or less and switching to aluminum bolts. I haven't figured that out yet. I'm sure those add up to at least 3 lbs.

so we're at -73 lbs on the Gen1

Forgot some parts like battery tray and chainguard, aftermarket fuel tank cap..... another -3 lbs, easy.
take off coolant reservoir and extra coolant -2 lbs
headlights -2 lbs

I think you can get the Gen2 down 80 lbs if you can do it to the gen 1. Costs some money. Of course, most of us will want to add a few things too and that adds weight, unfortunately.
