Making the XTX (or XTR) lighter

The ol' 660 is a fantastic bike but I reckon it could be made a whole lot better by shedding a bit of weight. After all, it weighs about the same as an R1 but it's 2/3 the engine capacity.

So, how about some ideas on how to make it lighter? Here are some of mine to kick things off:
  • After market cans (up to 6kg lighter)
  • Wavy brake discs (??? lighter)
A couple more but depends on riding conditions
  • Remove radiator fan (mine's never ever been on)
  • Remove side-stand
What else?
