XL empty weight, with various engines?

[rv7charlie]

I know this has probably been covered already but I couldn't find a thread with definitive info.
The XL is UL compliant, but *how* compliant is it? Meaning is it 1 lb under the 254 lb weight limit, or 20 lbs under, or how much? There are obviously multiple engine choices out there now with significantly varying weights, but if the LE XL only meets UL weight limits with a cut case hand prop 1/2 VW, it would be good to know before selecting a different engine. 

Thanks for any input/experiences.

I too would be very interested in this information.  It would be educational to have a chart of weights and options for various XL's.  For example, my build is shaping up to be (Verner 3V, 20" bike wheels, Oratex covering, etc).  I'm planning on Oratex because of lack of weight information to ensure I keep as light as possible.  It would be nice for a way to submit information annonomously in case a build is squeezing the limits a bit too much.  But on the other hand, that probably is very rare.  Right?

FWIW a flight instructor friend was talking to the GADO, and he said if it had one seat, a 5 gallon gas tank, and looked like it wouldn't go 100 mph, it was an ultralight. Period. 
For the OPs question.. an XL *can* make ultralight weight. Barely.
