Honda CB Unicorn 160 weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This is on the lighter side for a road motorcycle. The advantage is usually most obvious while parking, maneuvering at walking speed and moving the bike around off the engine. 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 Honda CB Unicorn 160 is lighter than about 84.5% of 42 Honda sport bikes with compatible weight data.
A full tank is not weightless: the 3.17 US gal (12 L) to 3.43 US gal (13 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 19.7 lb (8.9 kg) to 21.4 lb (9.7 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Honda curb-weight specification.
Weight is not identical across every model year in this page. Use the year-specific section rather than assuming one figure applies to every CB Unicorn 160.
The calculated power-to-weight figure is 4.7 hp per 100 lb to 4.74 hp per 100 lb across years with compatible data. It shows how much engine output is available relative to the bike’s mass.
