Haha, No no no. What I mean by that is (let's use dry clutch for an example again) you can cut down on weight by reducing the amount of oil in your crankcase by isolating the clutch and making it a dry system. In racing a clutch is only used on the start so there isn't as much wear and a wet clutch isn't really needed. Among other benefits like a cleaner system. But anyways, you spend all this money developing lighter
parts and shedding weight but you can do the same thing by taking a
and not eating breakfast before a race. The rider is often more important than the machine.
