Oh yeah, rather than defeat the ABS system and remove it, just try and shave the weight some place else. HAL has some nifty aluminum struts thast are supposed to be 32% lighter than the competitors (nothing like really nailing down some numbers there, 32% lighter than what and who?) I'm sure something like that or a fibreglass hood would take the same amount or more off, unless you where looking to remove all the weight you could? I think if all I had left to remove was the ABS I'd just go on a diet (err, well I am cause racing seasons coming up and I think I can lose a 10th by going on a diet myself
)
