But aren't they both hidden? Is there a weight saving at all?

Probably a few gm.

Also the HRC one is in different location so depending on fairing a different overflow bottle may be needed

The HRC type are designed to run dry so you're saving the weight of the bottle and it's contents. Not massive but I always do it.
How hard can it be?

Aye cheers for that. This picture is of a previous bike now sold to Landy63 who I think broke the bike for parts. On my current bike I have, I think, an old shampoo bottle. It's about the right size and clear, not like that tacky fruit shoot bottle.
It does of course have the obligatory HRC sticker to validate the obvious Bhp increase. :whistle: ;)
