Honda Gorilla 50 weight FAQ
How heavy is the Honda Gorilla 50?
Listed dry weight is 136.7 lb (62 kg). Because no usable wet/running figure was supplied, treat that as a lower starting point rather than the exact on-road weight.
Is the Honda Gorilla 50 heavy compared with other Honda naked bikes?
It is on the lighter side in this dataset. Its representative dry weight sits around the 1st weight percentile among 36 Honda naked bikes, meaning most compatible models are heavier.
How much does the Honda Gorilla 50 fuel weigh?
The listed tank capacity is 2.38 US gal (9 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 14.8 lb (6.7 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Honda curb-weight calculation.
How heavy is the Honda Gorilla 50 with an average-size rider?
A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 316.7 lb (143.6 kg) using the representative dry figure. Gear and luggage would add more.
How much horsepower does the Honda Gorilla 50 have per 100 lb?
Where compatible power and weight figures are available, it works out to 2.27 hp per 100 lb. That places it around the 3rd percentile within the compatible Honda naked bike power-to-weight comparison.
Can I treat the Honda Gorilla 50 dry weight as curb weight?
No. The usable figure is dry weight, so it excludes at least some operating fluids. Dry weight plus the estimated full fuel load is about 151.5 lb (68.7 kg), and oil/coolant or definition differences may add more.
How much of the Honda Gorilla 50 total weight comes from fuel?
Based on the available weight basis, a full tank of gasoline represents about 10.8% of the motorcycle’s weight.
