All joking aside I'm actually happy at that perk, not too paranoid about my bike which is nice. I am sure once I upgrade I will be freaked out anytime I leave it somewhere.

As far as the weight I don't doubt its close to 40, I am going to weigh it on our scales at work just for craps and grins. Regrets aside, looking forward to learning as I go so I appreciate the higher end stuff when I finally get it.
