Does anyone have a ruff ideal of the weight of a 2008 GL1800 with a Motor Trike conversion?

I don't,but most of the larger Truck Stops and Farmers Markets have scales that you could weigh on.Hoping that will help.
I forget exactly Richard but My '06 with MT conversion was just over 1200 pounds. Of course it carried a lot more down the road!!

I'm like an old race horse..... I can still run the race -- Just ache more at the finish line and need more rest between outings.
I have a 08 1800/CSC. Weighted it at a local scrap dealer scales. No driver or passenger. Weighted each axel separately, then entire bike. Results were,
Front axel 440 lb.
rear axel 880 lb
total weight 1320 lb.
Their web page might answer your question. About 1/2 down shows the weight.

Please keep in mind that anytime I share or give advise about a motorcycle, unless I state otherwise, I am always referring to GL1800's and no other.
I might have missed it but did not see which Motor Trike kit you were referring to. On MT's site, referenced on the previous post, I found the following data:
Fastback = 1127 lbs
Fastback 2+2 = 1135 lbs
Adventure Kit = 1200 lbs

The bike has the Adventure Kit. Thanks for all the help I will go with 1320 until I can get it weighted. I am going to put it in a 5th wheel toy hauler and that will help with loading the trailer. Thanks
