Been working on ride height for 06 Apex. My weight is 195, so I used 5 gallon water jug we use for camp
ing to adjust for for gear, 5 gallon weighed 25 lb. perfect. Gas tank was full of fuel.

I was 150 lbs. in high school and fastest white guy on football team. Now I am 75 and slowest guy on the
street.

Was there meant to be a question in there?
BTW, water weighs 8.35 lbs per gal. So 5 gal would be almost 42lbs.
 
the 5 gallon sounds about right for compensating for ice and snow build up/gear weight to me.
 
What I did was set the jug on a scale and poured water in till it weighed 25 LBs
