Can y'all tell any difference on weight when you're riding? Or is it purely for aesthetics?

My numberplate added 3hp.  Guy who fabricated it dyno-ed my bike for me before and after it got mounted.  I was happy to pay for a pic of it before I got it dirty...  It's like art...ti42PLATE

For me? Fuck no! I can take a shit before riding and have better weight savings than the money I have spent on titanium bolts/axles. Saying that I have spent a lot on titanium and it’s more of a parking lot conversation of who is the Vet.. lol

I couldn't find any the right size, so I made my own, 1.5-2.0mm carbon fiber sheet ...

Cut them out with a hole saw, lightening holes are optional.

I'm surprised nobody has this on the market.

I made a mount for my hour meter that locks in using the tank bolt. 

A buddy of mine works at a place that manufactures helicopter blades and, I get scrap sheets from time to time.

Dude, cool parts are cool parts. No biggie at all. 
I was on their site last night as well and, I saw that. 
I have new axles coming that I ordered. No, not titanium lol. Oem stuff is just getting so hard to find. I’m planning on getting a new wheel set so, I figured I should get axles. 


I was actually looking at the castellated nut. 
I plan on getting it in a couple weeks. Kinda busted the budget last night lol

I run all titanium screws in my race rigs... I also love the gold color that one 3 cell Lipo will make any tia piece. I have been "anodizing" them for years with stacked 9 volt batteries (Now I have the same power supply in the vid). This video is awesome to show all the colors that you can achieve for almost nothing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR90vWS16Is
