Max Laden Weight
« on: 09 July 2013, 08:28:13 am »
Hiya fellas,

As per title really.

Does anyone happen to know what the max carrying weight is for the '00 'X' 600? i.e me at 18 stone/115 kgs (i'm 6'4 so no fat bastard jokes  ;) ) leaves how much for a pillion?

Cheers in advance :thumbup

Don't forget it's 187kg all in, that's you, passenger, top box, luggage, etc....

187kg does leave a margin for error but that is up to you and your safety.

I have probably pushed 200kg with full luggage me before I lost a ton of weight and pillion.

Best to really firm up the suspension as well, otherwise you'll be bouncing all over the place!
