Bike Weight Argument

Post by Superwilly »

Ok, my father-in-law thinks that his 1995 cr250 is 100 lbs heavier than my 1985 kdx 200.

BAH! Isn't the weight of my bike around 225 lbs? I have had alot of trouble finding the weight of the cr250, but what I've found places it at about 215 lbs.

HIS BIKE IS LIGHTER, RIGHT?

Any help I can get proving this (link would be welcome) would be most appreciated!!!

Get out the bathroom scale, put it under the front wheel then then rear and add the two. My 2000 KDX weighs about 250 ready to ride with gas.

213.8LBS for a 97. Wouldn't be far off that.
