In case anyone is interested I've just weighed my LE500 (to validate potential braking solutions).
I've weighed it under 4 basic scenarios:
1. Empty
2. Empty + Driver
3. Empty + Driver + Passenger
4. Empty + Driver + Passenger + light Luggage
Most of the scenarios show a front rear weight distribution of 46:54
Under braking this changes to 61:39
Not much different to the published figures in http://www.mgf.ultimatemg.com
Screenshot of my calcs is attached to save anyone anyone else having to do the same thing.... :broon:
