Had mine on the scales with no passenger seat and only half tank of fuel. Was about 980kg. So over 1000kg with 3/4 tank and passenger seat.
Just wondering what a standard NB8B actually weighs. Vicroads has 1090kg. And I have read 1060kg.
Anyone had one on corner scales? Or looked at the track on the weigh bridge?
Anyone weighed an NB8B?

That's below what I would have expected. Was that with the CF roof and no soft top? Any other key parts removed (a/c, p/s, etc)?

Re: Anyone weighed an NB8B?
I removed all braces. Carbon fibre boot and fastback. No soft top. Exhaust and drivers seat would weigh less.
The c.f fastback and boot weighs the same as the oem boot. ~7.5kg's.
