My bike weighed in at about 190kg last winter when i had it on the scale. The tank wasnt completely full, so you can add some kilo's to it.

Weight savings:
- don't get the ABS model
- Talon hub & Excel wheels with 1 brake rotor
- KTM 690 front fork with aluminum triple tree and yoke
- S-moto rear tail tidy
- motobatt battery
- Exan exhaust
- AIS removed
- supersprox sprocket

But some new crud has been added to the bike adding weight:
- pannier racks
- navigation
- LED spot lights
- PCV, speedo healer, fuse block
- CLS chain oiler
etc.

it still is a heavy bike for the technical stuff
