Honda Silver Wing ABS weight FAQ

What does the Honda Silver Wing ABS weigh ready to ride?

Is the Honda Silver Wing ABS heavy compared with other Honda scooters?

Relatively speaking, it is on the heavier side. The model sits near the 98th weight percentile in its Honda category, so it is heavier than most of the compatible comparison set.

Not every covered year uses the same figure. The page groups identical values together and lists the later model years where the supplied weight specification changes.

How much does the Honda Silver Wing ABS fuel weigh?

The listed tank capacity is 4.2 US gal (15.89 L) to 4.23 US gal (16 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 26.1 lb (11.8 kg) to 26.3 lb (11.9 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Honda curb-weight calculation.
