How about eliminating that heavy battery? A123 made some high discharge lithium cells for DeWalt 36v tools and some motorcycle guys successfully replaced their batteries with these: http://www.tekbattery.com/. These guys don't sell the batteries anymore. Their prices were outrageous. You can get the batteries cheaper elsewhere. I've been thinking about doing it but my projects list is a long one.
I would order from here ($140):

You would have to make leads but that should be no sweat. You need a lithium ion charger, too. This one should have enough power for our Triumphs.
You can also buy from here already setup but they are half the capacity of the one above:
