I think the lighter bike feels different enough to warrant having it. I bought a used Riv Custom off the this list as a partner to my fendered and dyno equipped Homer. There is a bout a 7lb difference between them, so not really a huge difference but the Custom gives a different feel when riding and I notice it most when climbing hills. More lively. Not scientific but variety keeps riding interesting.
