Weights of some random crap

Doing brakes today and I decided to bust out the scale



Stock 4th gen front rotor



Z32TT rear wheel + 245/50/16 Falken 912
Tire is 24.4lbs according to edgeracing, minus maybe 1/2lb for lots o' wear and the wheel is about 20lbs.



I haven't eaten anything today...
I'm getting skinny

Bedding in the pads was fun confused the hell out of some BMW bike

<--- Always weigh my parts before and after. I even went to the grocery store to weigh my stock lug nuts. Then stole some grapes and ran out.

Eh I am 6' and very little of that is fat so it's ok

I used to be close to 180 back when I was eating moar, I need to start doing that again.. I have gained muscle though so I'm assuming it was mostly water and stomach weight

I weighed the old rotors too but my scale isn't precise enough to tell the difference

Almost did the calipers with and without pads but I'm not going to disconnect the lines

I used to weigh 185lb back in high school...during my football seasons, but that was also when I was slightly shorter...so shorter+more weight=built y0.

irish has a pretty big forearm so he is probably the ripped
