Walk into the dealer and by one. :D

It's not real light but it ain't chubby either.

Here's sexy.........Aprilia RSV4 - 390 lbs. dry

ABS and Traction control too (adds to the weight a little bit).

I don't know that the ABS is a huge + on track, but the TC is impressive. I was trying to stay on the heels of a local superbike guy on one but he'd just walk away from me on corner exit....yeah okay, and most of the rest of the track too - but just to a lesser extent. I was riding a similar powered pre-TC ZX10

I'd watch the guy just grab a handful and off he'd go.

Mad Max's Mille. That would certainly haul.
Used to love trading bikes with a good friend who had a Mille.

You made me want to look up the dry weight on my 05 and 06 GSX-R 1000's... listed at 365. Guess they're dated and old fashioned without the fancy abs and traction control.

Problem with the Japanese bikes "listed" weights is they typically lie big like today's politicians. :D
