Show hamsters are usually 200 - 300g, sometimes weighing more. For a pet shop ham I think around 140g is average, but some still do weigh less. It depends on your hamsters skeletal structure - if you can see or easily feel the spine then they are most likely underweight. If they're overweight they will usually have 'rolls' or flabs of skin. 90g does sound very small for a syrian.
