Where did you come up with these weights???
Is this supposed to be fully fueled and oiled weights???
Carls cycle has pics of all brands hanging from the scale both empty of gas full of oil.
If my memory serves me correct a 163 T3 was about 45-50# heavier than a 163 3" axys stock to stock.
If you dont think thats alot throw 45-50 #'s in your backpack and ride around tell me if you notice a difference.
Truth is they are all good and they take terns leap frogging each other and robbing ideas from each other.
I think doo will come out with something new pretty quick and they will have to up the game. It's going to have to be a lot lighter, narrower panels, better skis, and imo change the geometry all together to make the chassis roll yet hold a line and not wash the rear suspension so the rider is in more control on steep sidehills, but that last part is my preference.
This is really the same chassis they came out with in 2008, they just updated parts along the way.
