Hi Would anyone know or tell me where to find out the approximate weight (in KG's preferably but I can convert) of a 1275 bare cylinder head. I don't have scales need to be fairly accurate.
Thanks in advance, Jeff

Dunno Jeff - just weigh it on the bathroom scales ! Costs £15 to post Standard Parcels if that's what you really want to know !

Hi Roy - No a guy in Oz is buying a Cyl head from me and I just wanted as accurate a weight as possible before arranging delivery. No matter I will just have to get on the bathroom scales when the better looking part of the duo isn't around. Cheers, Jeff

I nearly weighed one and replied yesterday but I wrongly presumed that loads of others would beat me to it.
I have just weighed a 1275 metro head and it is just under 15kg.
hope this helps.

do not forget to add packaging..
I occasionaly got caught as it can push you into a higher rate postage band.

If it's not too much trouble take it to the local post office. They will give you the proper figure so you don't get caught out.

But not to Oz as Jeff is hoping to, he may have to find a courier servie rather than Royal Mail as I dont think they like items over 2kg going abroad, possibly better to try someone like DHL etc.
