Hi,
There's plenty that you can remove from an SV (especially a 99-02 bike) and still have it run just fine.

However, if you want to race it, my first thought would be to get hold of the regulations for the racing series you want to use (presumably minitwins or supertwins) and get a copy of the rules. This will make sure you don't modify or remove something that would then put your bike as being not legal for that series.
