New winter tyres fitted so I headed out looking for some mud. Loving this bike more and more, beginning to border on perfection. Image

Sadly lots of house diy cr4p got in the way last weekend and I never made it to the weigh bridge. I will try again this Saturday.

So I managed to sneak onto the scales at lunch time but they were busy so no photo but the bike weighs 156.5kg fully fuelled (12.5l)

A little over the 150 I was hoping for but pretty damn close :)

That's a very good weight for a 500! You've made a cracking bike - it really is the bike that Honda should be making,
