Honda NSC50R weight FAQ
What is the Honda NSC50R wet weight?
The supplied wet/running weight is 231.5 lb (105 kg) across the model years covered here. That figure is the most useful available number for real-world handling because operating fluids and fuel are included.

The calculated full-tank fuel mass is about 3.9% of the listed motorcycle weight. Because the available basis is wet/running weight, that fuel is already included in the ready-to-ride figure.
How does Honda NSC50R torque compare with its weight?
Where compatible torque and weight figures are available, the model works out to 1.12 lb-ft per 100 lb. This gives more context than torque alone because it relates engine twist to the mass it has to move.
