questions on weights

      First time poster,
      
      I'm trying to figure out what the 701 really weighs, and looking for any tips on
      keeping things 
      light. It would be great if some of you could post your empty weights (along with
      engine 
      choice and anything you did that added/subtracted weight).
      
      I also have a couple of specific questions:
      
      1. Regarding the extended fuel option, can someone tell me the complete weight
      of 
      upgrading to four wing tanks versus the standard two?
      
      side issue: 701 comes with 2 X 10 gallons but how much of that is usable?
      
      2. Did any of you weigh your plane before and then after painting? I'm curious
      as to how 
      much weight is saved by not painting.
      
      Thanks for help with weights
      
      Right now I'm trying to decide between a 701 and a 750, and in order to do that,
      I really need 
      to figure out what the "real world" useful load might be.
