| Re: Guess the weight of my RC So what exactly the phuck do we win?! My guess is 957 lbs. (434,087.90 grams). After all, it IS a twin... with a blue rider aboard.  |

| Re: Guess the weight of my RC If you plan on putting the bike on truck scales and getting an accurate reading, save your $8.00. They only read in 20lb incriments and are very off of accurate readings. A pallet scale is prefered. Try a warehouse or airfreight company by the airport. |

| Re: Guess the weight of my RC Mine was 467 so that's what I'm going with. But a truck scale won't have the resolution we need to know the truth. |

| Re: Guess the weight of my RC I used a heavy duty shipping scale, good for 300 lbs. I put it under the front wheel with a board the hieght of the scale under the back wheel. I recorded the number, reversed the board and the scale and recorded that number. Add them together and you're good to go! |
