Message: [QUOTE="zig06, post: 1249914, member: 80741"] I respectfully disagree on that. Full of fluids and no gas, the off-road DRZ-400e should tip the scales at around 275. And because the gas tanks all hold different volumes, this is the only fair way to do it. That model was discontinued for 2008, to make room for the yet to be released RMX-450 ~ or so the story goes. If your looking at the DRZ-400s or DRZ-400sm, those are both street legal models, and they might hit the scales at that. But those also have steel gas tanks, blinkers and emission controls. All of which are mandated for street legal use. Beyond that most all magazines agree that the DRZ holds it's weight in a way that makes it feel far lighter than what it actually is. Also, the DRZ is know for being a very reliable bike with a solid resale. So you should be able to enjoy many trouble free rides and then pass it on to the next guy so that he can too. [/QUOTE]
