Weight distribution

Post by Burbage »

I'll probably get labelled a nurd for posting this but here goes anyway.

Have you ever wondered what the weight distribution, front to rear is for an NC30? Wonder no more I have just measuerd it.

Bike on its own: Front 0.99kN (100Kg)
Rear 0.94Kn (96Kg)

Bike with me sat on it: Front 1.29kN (136Kg)
Rear 1.53KN (156Kg)

Measured with all fluids full.

Yes but how heavy are you and how much fluid did you drink before?
I saw it so I took it!
