Snullia,
I weighed the bike myself on an electronic scale we use for shipping UPS packages at work. It is pretty accurate, plus or minus a fraction of a pound. I got tired of everyone saying they feel light, and I got curious. Glenn is right though they feel lighter on the trail than when you go to lift them on the stand. Very compact frame design, they could give KX's a lesson here, they do it better than the company that invented the modern perimeter dirt bike frame!:p
BTW, 1996 KLX 650's weigh 297:( pounds with no gas and a slight smattering of dust should anyone in the universe care...
