Thanks to everybody that took part
There was certainly a wide range of bike weights, 7 Class A bikes were weighed long with 20 Class B bikes, two classics, a 1098 and Sam West's M600 standard road bike.
Class A ranged from 183kg down to 156.1kg with Steve41 taking the bottle of bubbly for the lightest.
Class B ranged from 186.7kg down to 157.6kg, with Dallas having the lightest bike in class and Rosco572 taking the prize for heaviest overall.

Other bikes weighed

Sam's 600 Monster road bike 187.6kg
1098 race bike 170kg
Classic Lansdowne Racer 138.8kg


After the weigh in I stuck my bike on the Dyno (at a cost of £25) where it recorded all of 55bhp and with its weight of 173kg I have quite a lot of work to do if I ever want it to be a competitive

Thanks for doing that Kev - any chance you could publish the list to serve as a snapshot of where bikes started the season? If not, can you PM me my bike's weight for my records? I remember it was heavy, but not HOW heavy!

Hi Guy, it was good to meet you at last and you were riding well, which made it harder for me to pass you as I worked my way through the field from my 27th place on the grid.

Weights
if people are happy to have the weighs of their bikes known add your name to the list and I will fill in the weight, also let me know if you would like the splt front & rear, I have been asked in certain quarters not to just publish a spread sheet with the results.

No record was made of any fuel levels so only you know what you had in the tank at the time of the weigh in.

skidlids Fr 86 Rr 87 Total = 173kg
Injected Total = 167.1kg

I'll leave it to Craig if he wants it published, but OMFG, how did I manage any decent results with such a porker of a bike!
Some carbon fibre on order I think...
