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?

now you have to calculate the centre of gravity of the bike on its own and with the rider fully togged up :grin:
