What Does Your Bike Weigh?

[Fulltimer]

I just went out and weighed my trike. What a fatty! It weighed in at 104.4 pounds! The frame is 1" square steel tube and besides the motor it has a 12v motorcycle battery, tools and lights.

So, what does your weigh?

About 72# with 7ah battery and tools.

 

[Flapdoodle]

My tribrid weighs 114#.
28# of that is the battery pack,
15# for the 3 phase synchronous motor front wheel.

105 with rear rack, basket, tools, battery, generator, lights.

 

[Virginian]

52 lbs. Light enough to lift into a SUV or carry up stairs. Any heavier would be a problem.

I ought to go to the recycling center and see if they can weigh mine.
I am guessing around 50 lbs.

Gearnut, place a bathroom scale next to your bike's stand. Lift your bike off the ground, then step onto the scale. Note the combined weight; now weigh yourself and subtract from combined weight. That's your bike weight.

"The Dragon Lady" weighed 140lbs. with electric hub and 80lbs of batteries.

When I replaced the electric drive with twin Mitsubishi 2.2hp engines, it weighed 105lbs.

My Diamondback bike with Scooterguy mount and Tanaka 47R engine weighs 55lbs.

My "Project 29" with GP460 engine should weigh 45lbs.

 

[GearNut]

I do not have a bathroom scale. The digital scale at the recycling center is free if they let me use it.

Last Thursday they weighed my dead T.V. at 225 lbs.
It was a HUGE Sony Trinatron console. RIP beloved T.V. Your humongous screen will be missed.....

For those with a more hefty bike - place the scale under on wheel at a time then total it up. It will be close enough for our purposes.
