Just checking back to let folks know that we had a great tour at the DRV factory in Howe, In. They are still making the Full House. While they did not have one, we did get a copy of the weight specs as it left the factory. The dry weights were:

Total unit 18,475lbs
Pin Weight - 4110lbs
CCC (23000 - 18475) = 4525

They are using frame mounted MorRyde suspension now stock with the 17.5 Goodyears (no traditional axles). Three "axles" for the Full House. Side to Side weights were:

Front Left 3220, right 3135
Center Left 2375, right 2385
Rear Left 1525, right 1645

We confirmed that loading the bikes (about 1800lbs) will lighten the pin a bit assuming you don't add a similar amount up front. From the weights above, adding some weight to the rear is probably a good idea anyway.

Really enjoyed the tour, lots of great info. Highly recommend to any prospective buyer.
