When comparing weights remember the Zong Shen bikes include a significant number of accessories the other bikes do not. That's a significant weight penalty right there, and once you add all the accessories to most other bikes of similar type in the same displacements they are also porkers.

I probably won't spend the money on any of the new bikes since the RX3 with the 300 bore kit is such a pleasant ride. Might be better for me in the long run to find another RX3 engine to install a 300 kit and grind some transmission gears with wider ratios. Maybe design and build a custom exhaust that weighs less once the convertor needs replacing. We'll see.
