No wonder I'm so fat... my scale is bad. Mine said 235 :smilie_happy:

It probable had some oil still in it, and a lot of gunk built up on it too.

Actually, I have had a motorcycle in the bathroom before, 1973 GT750K, in Okinawa, late 70s. Thefts were endemic; a typhoon was raging outside, and I was washing the bike in the bathroom (no bath tub, just an open stall basically with a stool, sink, and shower head on a hose). Worked for me, but the wife wasn't happy.

Good thing she didn't realize that was an example of what life would be like 40 years later.

The weight of the oldwing motor 1200 seems like a lot to me right now ...but I’m getting through it

Have one in my living room so I don’t qualify for bathroom area keepers, I haven’t weighed one but read that one weighs 256 lbs. you’ll have to verify, I know I can’t lift it.
