^ how much did it cost him?

There is a LW thread here on the forum where some racers have cut some serious weight off the ninja but these are track only bikes and losing that much weight means hacking off brackets, tail section of frame ect... After you get done with the cheap and easy weight reductions you are only left with a few options and the price gets pretty steep.

CF wheels and other bits and Ti nuts and bolts. A Ti axle bolt and nut can cost over $500 alone, all to save no more than a lb.

in short yes, just about anything is possible but you gotta pay to play
