It's got to be more than 60 lbs, I'm thinking around 75.

I just recently shipped a 250r motor. It was in a wood crate, I would estimate the crate about 15-20lbs. The entire packaged ship weight was 95lbs.

I had all the motor piece in a box, and before I left I weighed it just for the hell of it, and it came right to 60 pounds.

USPS has a max weight limit of 70lbs for parcel packages, if that helps.

You must be running about 20 more pounds of compression than everyone else?

I dont know how much that would be, but you take a portable air tank & put 120lbs of air in it & you can hardly carry it to the starting line :p

green was the race version and red was the average joe version, very expensive to get the green but very worthwhile investment. green make the 250r go fast
