Honda C 70 weight FAQ
How heavy is the Honda C 70?
Listed dry weight is 180.8 lb (82 kg). Because no usable wet/running figure was supplied, treat that as a lower starting point rather than the exact on-road weight.
How heavy is the Honda C 70 with an average-size rider?
A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 360.8 lb (163.6 kg) using the representative dry figure. Gear and luggage would add more.
Can I treat the Honda C 70 dry weight as curb weight?
No. Dry weight excludes at least some operating fluids, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will weigh more.
What is the Honda C 70 displacement per pound?
Engine displacement relative to bike weight is 0.4 cc per lb. It can help compare motorcycles from very different displacement classes without relying on cc alone.
Will the Honda C 70 feel heavy at low speed?
Its low mass should make hand-moving and parking easier than on most full-size road motorcycles. Seat height and center of mass can still change how manageable it feels.
