Yes, replacing the nice looking, perfectly fine, stock muffler with a smaller model will save weight. But I don't think the weight difference is 25 pounds! I have no data to the contrary, but I find that number to be unbelievable...
I decided on the Area P slip-on. I put it on a couple of days ago and I wish it would stop raining here in the NW so I could hear it more.
Jay is gonna be jealous of my new black foot pegs, I knew the Buell would be good for something.
nice looking, perfectly fine, stock muffler

I may be a bit off on the weight,

I was okay with looks my stock pipe until a non-motorcylist friend asked me what it was and said "Man that is ugly!" I decided on a new pipe to improve the looks and sound.
At the same time, Mr. Kawasaki must to be happy with it, as there are two of them on the new Z-14.

Other than knowing that my TB weighs less, I have not noticed any difference in how the bike handles;gas mileage is equal or less. So, what is all the fuss about the 12 or so pounds that are lose?
For me, it's not the weight, it's the size since I ride 95% of the time without the saddlebags.
Same with me. I ride with out the bags and the stock pipe looks like somebody strapped a cannon to my bike.
They should fire the engineer of that thing....
