Default combined rider/bike weight

how about a poll of combined weight of bike and rider,and perhaps then a power to weight index for riders based on bike output.bike fully fuelled,all lubricants,protection etc,and rider in all gear.ive weighed my bike two ways-on the liftstand on the bathroom scales-and front wheel weight,added to rear wheel weight.the diff was negligible+/-0.5kg so the 'each wheel' method prob the easiest.cheap scales accuracy?unknown!
Anyway,heres mine-ive included anything that would affect weight from stock

13 200 p3 pipeguard,p3 bashplate,rad braces,with kickstand,and factory lighting 118.5kg
rider with gear,incl small toolkit,and 1litre water 76kg
grand total 194.5kg
38hp? divided by 194.5kg equals 0.195hp/kg
