weight reduction

jeeze, in preparation for a mot (its got to happen one day!) i just removed my windscreen (no wipers) and both seats (neither were bolted in, foam is easier to test) and saved nearly 30kgs! Plus theres the drag factor from removing the screen. Wonder how much quicker it will be now!

As a small bonus, me knees now fit comfortably under the wheel!
