Just in case anyone wants to know what a 1975 3-1/2 weighs with a battery and oil but no fuel, all stock - 325 lbs on the nose
As a comparison my 1978 500 W weighs 386 lbs with a battery and oil but no fuel
1975 3-1/2 dry weight

And the battery as standard
And those cast wheels too. It's a noticeable difference pushing them in and out of the garage.
Interesting figures though, I always thought the older 350 was around 340 lbs as per brochures, that must have included fuel?
Oh and I'm sure unleaded/E10 is heavier as well as poisonous and devil worshipping too!

45 years of rust, bits fallen off. 10/40 semi lighter than 20/59 mineral?

Wow, that is one gorgeous 500!
Just from picking up my old footrests in their baggie, I'm willing to bet the Tarozzis are a lot lighter. Also, they're made of chocolate.
