Question How much does a Cafe weigh?

I'm looking at a mid-90's Cafe Racer...any idea?

Thanks.

The first time I pulled my Cafe it was with a Tahoe on a Saturday morning...we had an Excursion by the following Wednesday and my knuckles where back to there natural colors a couple weeks later after that Saturday morning drive.

A Tahoe? That takes some huevos...

Even with my small boat, my Tahoe was all over the road (compared to the Sub)...must be the wheelbase. I ended up putting air bags on the rear of my Tahoe, which helped a little.

On the Cafe, I was thinking if it was close, I could put air bags on my (Z-71) Sub...but I don't think that powertrain would be happy for very long.

Too bad the diesel isn't available- Mrs. HH really likes the Sub (and I really like the Cafe).

Just buy the boat and it will force you to buy something to tow it with.

Yeah, just get the boat and then you will be forced to buy a new tow vehicle...
