My bone stock 2008 with a fully topped off tank of gas weighed 601 pounds on the scales at the Byron dragstrip in Ill. It feels heavier than my Gen 1 but I was suprised at the actual weight. So were other people that saw the reading on the scales.
It does go fast in a straight line though; especially over the 100 mark. Effortless acceleration. definitely quicker than the Gen 1.
