What's the weight of your bike in stones?

Being a bit of an old fart, I'm still on imperial weight unless I'm buying food stuff

Looking up the spec for my little 125 shadow tonight, I just wondered how much 146kg was in stones.

20 bluddy 3 stone! no wonder he's not so easy to walk about, he's more than double my own body weight, far easier to sit and paddle


How much does your bike weigh in stones?

Are you sitting down? - Victory Vision DRY WEIGHT:

365kg, or 57 stone 5lb give or take. Add fluids and rider / pillion, and you've got a 500kg+ bike

Sure as hell don't feel that heavy on the move though

You'd think so, wouldn't you? Not so though - the built in crash bars on the sides prevent it falling too far, so it's a one man job to lift it again (as I found out). Not that I'd want to do it too often
