Some of them don't need to worry about being under the limit...at all.

In fact, good luck getting the AMA to show you the list after they've been weighed. Some of the teams wouldn't be happy.
I watched when they weighed the bikes at the Swedish round of MXGP. The ones in charge claimed the lightest bikes was at over 230pounds this was with fuel etc.

The difference between lightest factory and heaviest privateer was more than 25 pounds.

Nobody believed me in here in another thread.
