On our last adventure we finally had our coach weighed on a certified truck scale. (The best $12 spent so far). The coach was fully loaded for a trip. Full fuel, water, food, clothes. Wife was in the front seat. Hydralift with 600 lb BMW R1250GSA.
Front axil weight .... 9,720 lbs. 12,000 lb max.
Rear axle weight ..... 19,520 lbs. 20,000 lb max
Grose weight ........ 29,240 lbs. 31,000 lb GVWR
If Im reading this correctly we are 2280 lbs below front axle weight. 480 lbs below rear axle weight and 1760 lbs below GVWR.
Over 1040 miles we averaged 9.5 mpg. 340hp 6.7L Cummins diesel.
Although the coach squats an inch or two when the BMW is attached there is no noticeable different in handling with or without the BMW.
Does anyone see anything out of place with these numbers or have any concerns about the set up?
