Maybe that's why they chopped off 2 of the fins from the trunk to make it uphill this time.Note that the actual document (not all pages shown) list the 1090 figure as including the installation hardware (not included is the internal outfitting hardware that is installed after berthing). 1090 is the total combined mass.

OCISLY is outbound for the CRS-21 mission. You can see the droneship passing by B1049.7 - which returned on Saturday.JRTI seems to be out of service for maintenance/repair post-Crew1. Technicians were spotted working 24/7 shifts last week onboard.📸@NASAspaceflight Fleetcam

The additional installation hardware is in the capsule.

Is it official this capsule has C208 number?
The Falcon 9 emerged from its hangar Wednesday for the quarter-mile trip up the ramp to pad 39A. Riding a transporter-erector, the rocket arrived at the pad deck Wednesday morning and was raised vertical a short time ago.SpaceX plans to test-fire the previously-flown booster's nine Merlin main engines Thursday morning ahead of a launch scheduled for 11:39 a.m. EST (1639 GMT) Saturday.
