I would leave that as is, its fab and fun. The Overburys fanboys are sharpening the knives now.

I think @slackboy mentioned he might be getting it resprayed so new stickers/decals will be on the cards. He might omit the "O" on the drive-side downtube decal to pay homage to how he found it?!*

Love a good spec sheet
But that's because I'm a total geek and also spec sheets are easy for an illiterate monkey like me to digest!I start to twitch at an incomplete field such as weight though!
I was always obsessed by the weight of bikes and from memory loads of magazine tests omitted the weight of bikes which use to really annoy me. However I appreciate we don't always have bike friendly scales. My guess is 27.5lbs... + 3 I think.

I guess so. Think I was being WAY too kind! I would have thought it would be under 30lb with XT stuff on it...
