Not like it has a lot of stuff that can be deleted so it would be up to lightening components and that only happens if there is a big demand on the model. That fat exhaust is not that heavy.
My guess is a small increase in weight like the we got with the 1250.
The 1300 will probably have another shift-cam and that would add a little.
Maybe if they go with a aluminum frame there would be a weight reduction.
