Based on the spec sheets linked by Richard, the new batteries are only about .4 lbs heavier

The old exides list approx 13.44 lbs while the new MKs list 13.82 lbs

I'm more concerned about the max current draw - like Karthik said, if the draw is that much different than it will definitely have an impact on robot performance and capabilities
