Well we have weighed tons of bikes. You'd be surprised how heavy they actually are. This is 5 lbs heavier than a 2005 kx250. Keep in mind that full of fuel with guards etc. We had 3 bikes on this ride and we weighed them all. 2007 WR 450 came in at 273 and 2015 yz250fx came in at 253. The interesting part is the yz while riding felt heavier. We all switched bikes to get the feel and all 3 experienced riders said the same. The GG felt the lightest while riding. I hated the 450 for the type of riding we were doing yesterday. I only put a couple miles on it before before i swapped out. But it's a great dual sport
