cb750 weight
Bitsa (Ralph Wright - RIP):
Hi Guys,
Getting a bit old and knackered now to work off the floor and I am going to buy a pump up bench but am confused about the old girls weight.
Haynes says 210kg the Vin sticker says 385kg
420?
And off the web I found 254kg.Does anybody know WTH it is?
Cheers
Bitsa

210 would be about right.
385 or 420 must be the max gross weight (surely) - that's bike + you + missus (oo-err)
My Tiger 1050 weighs 220kg

Cheers Steve that will do for me as the bench's I have been looking at can cope with that weight but its called workshop mobyelette station!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Weird

I had a Raliegh Runabout when I was 16. It was the poor man's Mobylette (as French was obviously better...)
It was made of straw and papier mache. Weighed about 20 oz. Cost me £15.
... but surprised my Fizzie and SS50* mates by holding on to nearly 35 mph.
* In 1975, an SS50 cost about £150

These bike weigh nearly 500lb wet, 223kg, f--ing heavy old beasts
