You alive?

I can weigh them sometime over the holiday.

The 915 weighs 120lbs about 15lbs more than a 901

I have a G50 and a Tip I can weigh at the shop.

Approximate weights, from a Pano article a number of years back:
901- 75 lbs
915 - 125 lbs
G50 - 175 lbs

No data on the Tip; never been interested enough for any info I've read to stick.

Good guess Aaron, it's an 80mm crank. The LN cylinders are 98mm. It should end up having a good deal of torque.

And now after making a special offset key for the cam gear (to correct for the web cam inconsistencies) we can finally check the valve clearances and the other remaining issues.

Anyway it's a happy day when progress is made. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
