    Lets post some!

    My 2000 WR250 harescrambler weighs 247 lbs with a full (2.9 gallon) tank of gas.

    1993 Honda CR144 weighs 226 lbs with a full (stock) gas tank.

    Both bikes are woods machines with steel kickstands, hand guards, skidplates, slime in heavy duty tubes etc..

    Dual sport ready 2006 TE510, with 3.9 gallons of gas.
    305 lb's, weighed by using a bike lift with bath scale under the skid plate.

    P.S. it's so much easier lifting it with the factory tank after you drop it, never would have guessed a couple gallons extra could make that much of a difference.

    The new 449/511 has the tank where the air box is and should eliminate some of that feeling. :thumbsup:

    That's how my Yamaha FZR400 was, and it made the bike feel like a featherweight compared to other similar sportbikes. That's just how it should be, don't you think?

    I just weighed my 2009 450 SMR race bike with 1 gallon of fuel and got 249 pounds. I did the bathroom scale under the skid plate on a stand and made sure it sat level. My bike was put on a huge diet tho.

    Feels like BMX bike compared to the 510!

    '04 TE450 - 264lbs with half a tank of fuel. That's (ummm...) 120kg.
    No kicker or blinkers, but wraparound handguards and rad braces fitted.

    Gave my bathroom scales a fright! Seems a bit light though - I wonder if they're telling porkies...

    Yeah I had feeling that would be the case.

    Wish I had the finances to take advantage of that. Gonna be a few years before I trade in the Big Bad Wolf. I love her :thumbsup:

    Rufus those 06 machines are great and more importantly they are bullet proof. I had on 05, 510 and an 06 450 just brilliant all round bikes. I think people forget that the TE is not an MX bike sometines.
