Now that's very interesting. Out of boredom I threw the front wheel on a digital bathroom scale and measured 135lbs, and then threw on the rear wheel and measures 144lbs. Can I sum those values to arrive at a staggering 279lbs?!

My bike is fully wet (IMS 14 litre tank), armoured (skid, pipe, hand, front and rear fins, rads, headlight, front fender), auto-clutch, steering damper on a riser, and an EC stator.

Hmmm ... do I need all the armour because I fall? Or do I fall because of all the armour?
