Add 4 1/2 litres oil, 20 litres fuel - is that about 25kg?
should make it about 240kg.
9kg exhaust down to about 4 kg. means the starting point for you would be around 235kg? Is that right?
No idea what Ray's is weighing at the moment... His IS street legal though, with lights, etc.
Not just oil and fuel. You need to add brake fluids, fork oils, radiator fluids, battery fluids, and bits of water that sometimes sneak into your rear indicators...
Doesn't seem like much, but add a gear indicator here, a PC3 there, air horns, tank covers, HID lights and a couple of other bits, and you're getting closer to 250...
Also, some of those bling bling aftermarket wheels weigh 3x as much as the OEM ones!
