A12 87 kg 192 lbs
A14 93 kg 205 lbs

A15 is same as A14. A10 is lighter than A12.

What does an A10 weight because I think the weights are wrong
as recently someone weighed an a15 and it was around 108kg
complete.
The a10 bare is I reckon about 65kg as I picked one up the other
day and it was easier than picking up my nephew the fat blob.

It depends on how they were measured. With flywheel or without? With starter, alternator and air cleaner, or without? With oil in the sump or without?

a15 lighter than an L18 thats for sure but L18 easier to pick up as easier to grab onto. thats minus fly but with head intact and bottom ends

All those weights are inconsistant, some with accessories some without etc. I think some would even have gearboxes in those weights.

I like how a Z20 weighs that much more than a L18... they are basically a L20 but with a much shorter lighter head and rocker cover.

I think a re-weigh is needed. I think it would be best doing this without manifolds, alternator, fluid etc.

Yes, go ahead and measure them for us.

Will see what I can do, I have A12's L16's L18's a L20 a Z24 I can measure, just need some scales first.

I would be interested to know what the Z24 weighs.
