I got my empty weight and it is 1641 at 108.74 inches. How does that compare to the ones flying? Seems a little aft to me considering what happens when put some weight in the back seat. The only things I did not have on/in the plane were the wheel fairings.

Any opinions?

Rene,

Mine was 1576 lbs and 109.24 inches empty, but no interior and no paint yet. 60+ hours on it at these numbers, with absolutely no adverse handling qualities either 1 pilot or 4 pax and full fuel.

1685 and 108.67 I think you'll fly just fine. Just do all your
W&B's and get a feel for loading senarios.
