Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This is firmly on the heavier side. The real penalty is not necessarily normal riding; it is low-speed work, awkward parking and moving the bike around manually. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level dry weight comparison, the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG is heavier than about 91.7% of 12 Kawasaki allround models with compatible weight data.
Fuel capacity is 4.76 US gal (18 L) to 5.28 US gal (20 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, that represents roughly 29.6 lb (13.4 kg) to 32.8 lb (14.9 kg) of fuel when full.
Available power and weight figures produce a power-to-weight range of 20.02 hp per 100 lb. That is more useful for comparing acceleration potential than horsepower alone.

Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG weight FAQ

How heavy is the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG?

Listed dry weight is 542.3 lb (246 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 Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG heavy compared with other Kawasaki allround models?

Relatively speaking, it is on the heavier side. The model sits near the 92nd weight percentile in its Kawasaki category, so it is heavier than most of the compatible comparison set.

Does the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG weight change by model year?

Not in the usable weight data on this page. Across the covered 2011-2017 years, the supplied weight figure remains the same where comparable values are available.

How much does the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG fuel weigh?

The listed tank capacity is 4.76 US gal (18 L) to 5.28 US gal (20 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 29.6 lb (13.4 kg) to 32.8 lb (14.9 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Kawasaki curb-weight calculation.

How heavy is the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG with an average-size rider?

A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 722.3 lb (327.6 kg) using the representative dry figure. Gear and luggage would add more.

How much horsepower does the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG have per 100 lb?

Where compatible power and weight figures are available, it works out to 20.02 hp per 100 lb.

Can I treat the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG 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 571.9 lb (259.4 kg) to 575.2 lb (260.9 kg), and oil/coolant or definition differences may add more.

What is the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG full-tank weight estimate?

Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 571.9 lb (259.4 kg) to 575.2 lb (260.9 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.

What is the Kawasaki ZRX1200 DAEG torque per 100 lb of bike weight?

The calculated torque-to-weight range is 14.55 lb-ft per 100 lb. It is useful for comparing bikes with very different overall weights.
