Yes it was around 207lbs. It could drop a few more pounds very easily but I got busy with other things.

The MX51's aren't the best choice for weight savings. - Pirelli MXMS's (110/80-19 rear), drop 2 teeth on the rear sprocket (and 2 chain links), remove the FWW, Cycra Powerflow front fender and OEM shrouds, non-pleated seat cover, to name a few. I haven't checked to see what tubes were used but there could be some significant weight to save there too.

If I were lighter some lighter spring rates would save quite a bit of weight. Carbon clutch/ignition covers and rear shock splash guard. If a guy wanted to spend some dough a CRM carbon tank, Think seat foam and bar pad, custom Ti front axle for these forks and a Ti shock spring would get the bike pretty close to 200 lbs.

I bought this bike intending to do these things and try to get it to 200lbs but other things took priority. These forks are really trick but a set of air forks would knock off another 2lbs.

Bump. I don't have the heart to part it out.

I'll include spare 9oz and 11oz FWW's, FMF SST/Ti2, stock pipe/silencer, complete 250cc top end with tons of spare Head/base gaskets for both top ends, brand new Bridgestone M403 front and Dunlop MX71 rear, new pre-oiled air filters, new set of Renthal bars and handguards.

Kamloops BC, I can crate and ship it from WA state for a US buyer to keep shipping costs reasonable.

Damn that bike is sweet. You don't see a lot of Sölva stuff in the US.

Thanks! It's sure awful tempting to start robbing the Ti bits off of it for my TM's but so far I'm staying strong, lol. I don't want to strip it and part out the leftovers if I can help it.

Is it still available? And also, how is the power with the 265 kit? I'm coming off a 300sx and want a 2015 300sx but this bike has me interested.

Still available. I've only ridden the bike with a 13oz flywheel weight installed but the power is very broad for a CR. It still doesn't have the low end of a 97 KX250 but it's a lot stronger than stock down there. It pulls very hard through the mid and top, like a 250 on steroids. It's revs a lot faster than a 300 and feels a lot more lively. No big hit, but not as linear and 4-stroke like as a typical 300.

This thing is still sitting here collecting dust. I'm dreading the PITA of parting the thing out, so one last chance. $5k takes it complete.
