Frame weight
Has anybody weighed the FZR400 frame (1WG)? I know the archives says its 24 lbs, but I weighed mine last night (no subframe) and it weighed 18.7. That's a big difference from 24 lbs.

Re: Frame weight
I actually read somewhere it was about 13lbs... but 18 makes more sense. 23 might be with sobframe... but even that is light. When I took my subframe off it was like 12 lbs on its own.
Re: Frame weight
I weighed the subframe too and it came out to 10.6 lbs. It has been cut down some so I can't say what a stock subframe would weight. Together they weighed 29.3 lbs.

Re: Frame weight
I wrote down my full subframe weight somewhere. Was about 18lbs if I recall correctly. With passenger pegs, and key lock.
The shockmount portion of the subframe was about 2.2lbs on the scale.

Re: Frame weight
Will do, I just want to get a little concensus going before I list anything. I mean 19 versus 24 lbs is a big difference. (21% variance)yamaha_george wrote:The WIKI general Bike maint. section has some contributed part weights for comparison .
