QUIZ TIME - What does a 696 weigh?

[Duke_Hatty]

Just weighed mine, on a properly calibrated weighbride accurate to 1kg.

So, chaps and chapesses have a guess at the REAL weight!

(All up weight, ready to roll, nearly full fuel tank, bog standard bike)

(I'll let you know Monday/Tuesday)
:on:

[Ducmon]

I would say around about 185 KG without you of course.

[Captain Caveman]

i'd go for a bit less, about 178/9...?

[Albie]

177.3 kg at a guess

[dlloyduk]

193kg I bet they weigh less battery and filters to get the weight figure down as low as possible.

[seby]

ducati declare the weight of 163kgs
but without any liquids and battery
battery 4kgs
fork oil, brake oil and engine oil 4.5kg
petrol (full tank 13.5kg)
total ~185kgs

Sod Monday come on I am intrigued! or PM me and I,ll say nowt.

[Pomp1]

189 maybe?

[Duke_Hatty]

Hehee!
Some VERY close guesstimates there, well done!

It was 186kg.

I reckon I could have got 2 litres more fuel in there so about 188kg with a brimmed tank, so that's 25kg of 'fluids' in it

:D

TBH I though it would be a bit more than that, so I'm fairly pleased.

That's 1kg more than my M1000 with a full fuel tank!

Yeah, but yours has bigger holes in the engine, so that's where the extra weight has gone....
;)

Have you weighed it too?
:)

When it went for it's MOT it showed 185kg on the scales

[Duke_Hatty]

I didn't realise they had scales in garages....
I guess you learn summat every day!
:D

[Pedro]

They need scales to do the brake test apparently

[CK & AK]

Bikes have been weighed for MOT ever since they had to work out the braking efficiency - so a number of years now :)

C, with 696 weighing 174kg with 7 litres in the tank (measured) on official racing weigh platform at the track......unmodded apart from termi's
