I have spoken to my mate and his dad will knock up a racing clutch for us (out of aspestos!) and machine the flywheel for us to knock some weight off it 
He makes really quality parts and seeing him knock parts up is amazing to watch.
The lighter weight flywheel will mean the engine will spool up and down faster which is how i like it. Even if it can become a bit snatchy.
I guess roll cage and seats are the big ones. I need to have a look at how others have the roll cage really i think.
Seats - i will go to a local rallying shop and see what they can do. At least I will be able to get rid of the ghastly grey and green leather (wtf was that all about)
Other bits are a plumbed in fire extinguisher, harnesses, electrical cut off, upgraded suspension, set of tyres to meet the regs, remove the rear seats... i think that will do for a first attempt
Whats this upgraded ohlins suspension look like? (not a fan of ohlins on my bikes so will look at doing something else)
I also want to upgrade the cooling systems capabilities with probably a custom made expansion tank with larger capacity. electric water pump assistance with bypass and we will see what else comes along as i go. Probably a lightweight lithium battery.
total weight has to be 1350 kilos
