Well I can tell you that the spindle weighs 293gm, I have to wait till I strip the bike before I can weigh the OEM item. However the nuts are 4gm heavier than the OEM aluminium item.

I got a Titanium rear spindle made for my M900 by Pete at; http://www.ti64.co.uk/
Ti item weighs 225g compared to an OEM steel spindle for an M600/750 (which is 12mm too short for an M900 due to the thinner swingarm) which weighs 510g.
