Gauge delete, tether delete, throttle delete, ECM delete. Very cost effective.

Honestly there’s not a lot unless your gonna spend a lot of money. Obviously exhaust can is #1 bang for the buck.

ti a-arms
Rear skid of some sort
Belt drive is lighter but not as efficient as chain
Someone probably makes a lighter hood

all I can think off.

keep in mind the turbo is perfectly balanced side to side with a 7lb difference

i think for now it stays stock but slowly work my way towards making it a bit lighter.. im coming off an xm so im sure it will already be a vast improvement over that

Keep it the weight it is, and add more power.

Fuel tank porting is always a great weight saver.

Exercise and lose some weight!!

Not saying you are fat but the best and cheapest for weight loss is the rider getting down to a very manageable weight!!

 

[rightsideup]

belt drive is more effective know a doo person that does it to every sled he has.

Turbo is HYVO?

Turbo is HYVO?

yes it is hyvo.... and chain drive is more efficient than belt.

 

[rightsideup]

We agree to disagree...cheers

I believe there is a headlight delete kit that give a guy more storage. I'm not sure I would save any weight, as I would be putting on a LED after market light, and filling the storage area that would likely end up being weight neutral.

 

[maxwell]

headlight delete and muffler would be the only modifications i would consider to those machines. Dont waste your time on a belt drive

 

[pommie_git]

Just ride it and save your money for your next snowcheck.
I’d rather have a new sled a year sooner than a turbski that weighs 6lbs less.

 

[drew17]

how is the can situation on these turbos are most guys riding stock exhaust?
