    quote Mr. Asa:

    I actually have a ’56. I wonder what the differences between the two years are that give an 8 lb increase? Heftier castings, maybe?

    Haven’t weighed mine, but two different manuals can’t be that far off, can they?

    1955-56 was a complete redesign over the pre-55 models. Rubber mounts, lower cowlings, air silencer etc. They did well to keep it at only 8 lbs.
