Yamaha Wolverine 350 weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This is a substantial motorcycle. The weight matters most when stopped, backing it up, parking on a slope or recovering from a lean. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.
