I suppose it depends on your point of view (and age?) but I put the weight of the bike just after comfort and certainly before polish, which is why I said in another thread that I was taking off one rear drum in my road Comet rebuild. I just weighed it, with all the brake rods levers torque stays etc it came to around 13 lbs of unsprung weight I think a good guess of total loss with other mods etc may be about 30lbs weight overall, but I have gained an electric start so it will be interesting to see what the overall weight is when I get it off the stand in a week or so.
Since I have Bramptons and it is a forties Comet I wonder how it compares to a B Comet or even Meteor?
