I was looking at my brake performance data sheet that was issued at sva and noticed that it shows axle weights. I must say i was a little dissapointed at the weight of my car (full tank of fuel no driver) 640kg on the up side the front/rear weight balance minus driver was 52/48 %, and with driver was 49/51% any other avon owners know their car weights. Is mine heavy?

it sounds like an honest weight to me .lots of bull about weights from most car manufacturers and kit makers are no exeption most bec,s are around the 500kg mark and car engined sevens 550-700 depending on engine type. il sit back and wait for the barrage of superlight owners to respond now

mine weighs 9 stone........ shes a size 10 and 26 year old, does that help ?

Mine weighed 540kg at my local weighbridge on its first journey. That was with a full tank of fuel and a boot FULL of tools. I couldn't get breakdown cover pre-SVA and I didn't want to break down on the way to the MOT station.

Ours is now a little under 500kgs..

At SVA mine was 555kg (K series engine, full tank, no screen, no tools)

Our Indyblade was 450kg at SVA, but not sure how accurate that would be, I assume it must be fairly close.

Mines a real lightweight then, SVA put it at 1016kg, , but then it does drag around a 2.9i, spare wheel, screen, and a boot full of tools. But by f**k it really goes. Ray.

ours with a pinto engine is 520 kg building a bike engine one at the mo hope fully going to be 420 kgs

DOn't know weight of mine at the mo', super light weight, no engine, no gearbox, no seats, no drive shafts, no calipers, no wiring, no wheels or tyres and no seats. I geuss about 350 kg.

But its getting there, sorting out loom and and pickling rear hubs at the mo.

Oh and tax man paid so no planning out spare cash.

Mine was 550kgs at SVA with full tank of fuel.

David

540kg with half a tank of fuel

Steve

580Kg with full tank of fuel.

I think i will put it over a weigh bridge as soon as its registered i cant believe its that heavy? even with an xe in it. mja.

You know that one of the figures on there includes 150KG for 2 occupants?

I was a little concerned when mine appeared to be 800Kgs!!!! But taking off that 150Kg made it seem a little better!

Cheers,

My Pinto powered Avon weighed in at 601 KG at SVA.
