The stock weights for a GTS 250 are 11 graams. I just weighed one at the post office yesterday.

I didn't list the GT200 because there is some discrepancy. I think they are listed as 12.5 but are actually 10.7.

I think the 500 cc bikes also take a 27 gram.

so what does this do if we change it?

does it make it accelerate quicker with no delay?

What is the best one to use for the LX150?

Is it easy to change?

thanks
