Bike weigh In at Pembrey

I have attached a pic to do with the weighing of the bikes at Pembrey

I haven' included specific weights as the owners of the bikes might not want to share this info, but I have listed them in order of weight for each class and included the Front Rear weight Bias.

The amount of fuel in the tank at the time of the weigh in is probably only known to the owner/rider/mechanic and may have some bearing on the results.

mine is right in the middle of the list, more than happy with that considering it's got the std tank and airbox and all.
