What is the apple to apples weight difference on those compared to stock??

I know apples to apples, you saved about 7.5-8# with ZX-10 rims/setup frt&bk
Save about 15# with the BST's frty &bk.

What about these???

I didn't think I wanted gold rims but the more I see them the more I like them. Can't wait to see pics of everything installed.

Worked on the bike today, got the plastic off on the side it fell on but I found a piece of plastic broken that goes behind the fairing so I have to get that piece before I put the new stuff on. Got the new wheels on and levers and installed the BMC, I did weigh the stock wheels vs the Carrozzeria's but I left the piece of paper I wrote everything down on in the garage so I will post that up when I get back over to get the paper. I think the weight difference was about 6.5 lbs lighter than stock overall. I also went to a 6.25 inch rear wheel vs the 6 inch stock so I think thats pretty good. Anyway I think the Gold wheels look great on the black bike.

This is my father in laws garage, I have to thank him for letting me use the heated space to work on the bike. The WW2 Flyer was someone in his family. Very nice display.

I also removed the passenger pegs and hardware. That saved another 3 pounds.

Finished up putting the rest of the bike back together and I think it came out great. Replaced the left side mid and lower fairing and grill as well as added a Yoshimura Fender eliminator. Also did Oberon Pegs which are very nice high quality pieces. I have included some pics of the left side damage from the fall over. Also did a SuperSprox 40T and added the GPR Steering stabilizer and light smoke zero gravity double bubble. Took it for a quick rip and all was well, cant wait for spring.

Here a pic of the finished bike and some pics of the damaged pieces from the fall over.
