Dry weight of the K9 Sport... - SV650.org

18-09-08, 08:06 PM

On the suzuki website the dry weight for the K9 is 199kg...

For the older models it was 160-180kgs.

Anyone know what they would have added to make it 20kg heavier!?!

Thanks

ABS?

Actually, after further investigation I think the UK Suzuki website has got it wrong.

This PDF (below) says that the curb weight is 196kg / 199kg (without / with ABS).
