most 2t  scooter motors use about  7gr weights give or take
about a 1/2gr.
however when changing other parts like springs ,or adding a pipe  or cylinder
you may add or subtract about 2 grams. that being said  its not gospel
 just rule of thumb..thats why you have to "tune "  the variator..

a.d.d. isn't that just another term for  stuff is boring ?  ;)
give most people a tv remote and they suddenly develop a.d.d.
