50 lbs is a steep number IMHO.  It is going to cost you a lot of money as well.  Fiberglass body, gas cap, clip ons, titanium exhaust, sprocket/chain change, case cover change just to name a few off the top of my head.

Clip-ons = handle bars

When I laid mine down I bent the left one so I bought a set of Woodcraft.  They are lighter and are fully adjustable to where you feel comfortable for you.  I move mine about 1/2" in since I have shorter arms.
