Does anyone know the weight of a BW1354?

VERY roughly, around 75 lbs. That's a WAG based on trying to bench press one in. Heavy enough to be a royal PITA.

actually it's more like 63-64# (for a manual shift), it just feels like 75#

the electric shift is closer to 70# even (weight of the magnetic spin-up clutch and associated parts along with the shift motor)

I doubt I can feel the difference between 70 and 75 lbs, but are you counting that obnoxious (and rather heavy) harmonic dampener?

Alright, I grabbed my wife's Taylor bodyfat digital scale, checked its calibration with a 70# dumbell (70.0#) and myself (197.5#), both seemed right so I went out to the barn and put an 8" square of Luan plywood on it (a few ounces at most) and weighed the following parts I have accessable. Glad I ate my Wheeties.

4x4 C5 with fluid and converter--124.5#
2wd 700R4 with fluid and converter--187.0#
2wd TH400 with fluid and converter--204.0#
1350 manual #1--61.0#
1350 manual #2--61.0#
NP205--147#

0h, no bodyfat was indicated for any of the gear though I registered an obese 14.5%.
