I'm gonna figure out a way to put my gen-4 on the scale

Try balancing it on one wheel on your bathroom scale -

Close...I have two analog bathroom scales. I place a peice of lumber across the two and zero them each out. Then I roll the bike up on the lumber and add the two weights together. Not sexy...but when bounced off certified scales is damn close. Plus, I can weigh bikes on showroom floors this way and shut salesmen up. Again, for me I just like to know how bikes compare to each other. So using the same scales gives me a good idea.

I have a 500lb shipping scale that my stand fits on. Zeroed it with the stand on the scale and then stuck the bike on the stand.

253lbs.....

Just seems heavy, then again I am running ultra heavy duty tubes, dual wheel locks, DNA wheels and hubs, stock controls, stock triples, steel bars, tall seat, stock expansion chamber, full skid plate plus all the conversion material. I know I wanna cut some weight, maybe reg tubes, alum bars and levers, new alum triple tree???

All I can say is try pushing the heavy pig back up the hill after a hard rib cracking spill, if not for some 250 kid that ran over and gave me a hand I would have left the bike until I could get my truck down to it!!! Funny part was the kid said he heard the wind get knocked out me... Said he heard me say shit in the air, then pewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww when I impacted.. Kid was a clown and made the best out of it, made for a funny walk up the hill and even tho it hurt like hell to laugh glad his humor was there and his buddies to push my ride made the whole thing that much easier!!!

friend here has a shipping scale that goes in half pound incriments up to 500 something lbs...

but the bike didnt fit on it.
my solution? removed the seat, unbolted the tank, and set both on scale. (including bolts, fuel in tank and all)
wheel bike so its over the scale (but not on it)
stand on scale, and pickup bike by backbone.

478 lbs...
took parts off the scale, and weighed myself.. a porkly 243lbs.
bike weight.... 478 - 243 = 235 on the nose.

so my steelie weighs less then me, a scant 235lbs, ready to go.

i showed my bike to the guy at honda i buy parts off of, and he owns an 86 steely...and just by sitting on it and picking it up at the back fender he said it feels like 40-50lbs lighter then his steely...and it's not like he was saying that to impress poeple...that's what it felt like anyways...
