Thats what I thought about my Kern ones when I got them and weighed myself, sadly the bu99ers don't lie, they are very accurate less than 1% error over the range tested.
Mind you they do cost a bit more than your average bathroom scales

Any chance you can bring the scales to Mallory as I'm intensely curious as to the weight of my new race bike!

I thought you might say something like that!

Maybe I'll magically happen to have a bike in the back of my van when I return your headers
