That would be close enough I would think.

So, using an electronic scale, and depending on where I put the upended frame and balance it in place, I get readings of 45.8 lbs, 46.2 lbs, and 51.1 lbs.

Thanks everyone, I will be in Phoenix this week end to ship that titled 80 KZ1000 frame back to Idaho. Wont be cheap but the plan is to use up some parts I have laying around. I bought a 74 Z1 and with that I got a chopper which had a chopped up KZ1000 frame and a 76 KZ900 engine in it. Titled frames are hard to come by so it will be mostly 80 KZ1000 parts with a few Z1parts thrown in. Should be interesting.

Sometime this spring I'm planning a trip to see Kevin.  He has a couple of bikes that would make a good project and I have most of the parts to make a nice bike.

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Ive shipped stuff from greyhound bus service before. They are pretty reasonable. You have to drop it off and pick it up at the station..

Im pretty sure Greyhound isn't shipping items unless you are a a customer riding to that destination.
