offalot, your bike looks amazing. the scale i'm referring to at the scrapyard is the one they weigh your aluminum on, it's usually inside and weighs down to the tenth, and is much more accurate than a bathroom scale. it typically is approximately 4'x4' so you could put your bike up there on its center stand no problem. most bathroom scales only go up to 300lb.and balancing a motorcycle on one would be pretty tough. although you could put it on two separate scales, and add up the axle weights, that would also tell you the weight balance of your bike.
anyway, I just buzzed up the road on my bike minus the windshield, and found a huge difference in and out of tuck. either, the windshield was causing the wobble directly, or it was messing up the aero somehow. but I hit 85 with no wobble, so I'll be leaving the windshield off. might lower the tail lid some too.
