Across the 2002 and 2003 model years, the Honda XR 50 R motorcycle has supplied dry weights ranging from 103.6 lb (47 kg) to 104.1 lb (47.2 kg).
Honda XR 50 R weight overview
Its low overall mass should be most noticeable off the throttle: moving it by hand, backing out of a parking space and managing stop-start riding should take less effort than on a heavy road bike. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.
