Aha... you ARE a light guy! I go 220-225 lbs, and I'm running 9.3g weights in the stock variator in my LX150, which gives me better acceleration than stock and the same top speed. I'll be installing my 190 kit in about a week, and I plan to go to Dr. Pulleys in the stock variator. I'm thinking somewhere between 10.5g and 11.5g will be in the right ballpark with the kit.

well word to the wise and i am sure that you already know this but it took me about 200 miles to break in the rollers and belt, until then the performance was really kinda bad. Just so you can expect it.
