Hello, Tom:

No, although if he was I would think at this point that he might have
his big toe on the scale or something... ;^)

Seriously, the 2,680lb weight was for my '90A/FM II w/HDHC, full tank of
gas, spare, me and laptop. Sheesh. And I thought I lost some weight when I
got the new BSP Europa headlight kit... :-(

My 90 weighed 2120 with a 1.8, AC, no gas (same setup as Frank Adams 2070#) Mine
just weighs more!
