Across the 2017 and 2018 model years, the Yamaha Ray ZR motorcycle has supplied dry weights ranging from 227.1 lb (103 kg) to 231.5 lb (105 kg).
Yamaha Ray ZR 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.

Yamaha Ray ZR weight FAQ
What is the Yamaha Ray ZR dry weight?
The available dry weight is 227.1 lb (103 kg) to 231.5 lb (105 kg). Actual ready-to-ride weight will be higher after fuel and operating fluids are added.
Is the Yamaha Ray ZR lighter or heavier than other Yamaha scooters?
Weight is broadly typical for the category, landing around the 53rd percentile in this model-level Yamaha comparison.
Which Yamaha Ray ZR years have different weight specs?
The supplied data shows different weight figures across the 2017-2018 model years. Use the year-specific changes section above for the exact value attached to each changed year.
How much does a full tank add to the Yamaha Ray ZR?
Based on the supplied 1.32 US gal (5 L) to 1.37 US gal (5.2 L) tank capacity, the gasoline itself weighs about 8.2 lb (3.7 kg) to 8.5 lb (3.9 kg) when full. This helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.
What is the combined Yamaha Ray ZR and rider weight?
Using the model’s representative dry weight and a 180 lb rider, the combined bike-and-rider mass is about 409.3 lb (185.6 kg) before riding gear, luggage or a passenger.
Is the listed Yamaha Ray ZR weight ready to ride?
The published usable figure is dry, not curb weight. A simple dry-plus-full-fuel estimate is 235.6 lb (106.9 kg) to 239.7 lb (108.7 kg), but that still is not a substitute for an official wet/curb specification.
How much heavier is the Yamaha Ray ZR with a full tank?
Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 235.6 lb (106.9 kg) to 239.7 lb (108.7 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.
What is the Yamaha Ray ZR torque per 100 lb of bike weight?
Where compatible torque and weight figures are available, the model works out to 2.58 lb-ft per 100 lb to 2.63 lb-ft per 100 lb. This gives more context than torque alone because it relates engine twist to the mass it has to move.
How many cc does the Yamaha Ray ZR have per pound?
The available figures work out to 0.49 cc per lb to 0.5 cc per lb. This is not a performance rating, but it is a useful way to compare engine size against total motorcycle mass.
Motorcycle specifications can vary by model year, market, equipment and the exact dry/curb-weight definition.
