So what parts have you pulled and chucked?

My list so far is:
- AI
- Snorkle
- Chain guard

But surely there must be more unnecessary parts that can come off (or be cheaply substituted).

What have you guys junked???

I keep the old parts around.
Chain guard?
Why do that?
Its not like there is any weight to it, and the bike looks ugly without it....

Besides the norm the rubber-ducky spaceship signals, reflectors. Loomed my wires & cables neatly under the tank t obe un seen. O yeah the baffles & restrictor plates & 2" off the end of the pea shooters. Would like to lose the crossover pipe, but that would require buying a new exhaust system. Not ready for that yet- but I DO hate those spots on the down pipes in the middle of my nice( not blue) chrome. Rub them off & they come rite back! O well- when the system takes a turn for the worse , it wont be a problem any more! :???: :hammer:
