Ok so i can answer this question. My buddy has a 2017 Husky TX300 and I have a 2015 EC 300 which happens to be the same bike. We weighed them on the same set of scales at the exact same time. Both of them were ready to ride and full of fuel. Both bikes had skid plates, radiator braces, and mousses front and rear. The only difference is he runs full bark busters and I run flags. My GG weighed 258 and the Husky weighed 251. That's 7 lbs!!! Also keep in mind my bike still has the headlight, taillight, and a 5lb battery in it, while the Husky has no lights and a lithium battery.

The weight issues is such a silly argument anyway! People get so hung up on advertised weights of KTM and then point out all the magazine articles about the GasGas being 258lbs. Let's compare apples to apples here.
