That doesn't seem right Mr Darrsi?
Yamaha quote 189Kg as the weight of a FZS600 without fuel and oil.
Haynes quote 210Kg with fuel and oil.
I have no idea what the real figure is but the tyres have a maximum load rating. For the FZS600 a typical rear would have a load index, marked on the tyre after the size, of 69W. For the front 54W. This translates to 325Kg rear and 212Kg front. Making a total of 537Kg :eek
I don't know what the legal situation would be with that all up weight, but I imagine it would not be good for a track day and probably have no suspension movement left.
