  • Ride to ocean, boring; ride to the dump, more informative

    Decided to stop by the dump on my way back from my ride today. I was able to talk the girls at the desk into letting me weigh the bike and I. Results, the bike w/o me weighs 545 with a pretty much full special tank, the bike and I in all my gear, 720. The reason I took the time is that the program I use to tune my Megasquirt will do HP and TQ as long as you have weight and RPM to wheel ratios. I don't know how accurate it will be, but it will provide benchmarks for tuning.

    That's one way to get it done! I'll have to remember that trick for next time before I head out on a road trip.
