Honda XR 70 R weight overview
This is a genuinely light bike. That usually makes parking, pushing it around a garage and catching small low-speed balance errors easier than on larger motorcycles. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

Honda XR 70 R weight FAQ
How much does the Honda XR 70 R weigh?

A full tank works out to about 9.2 lb (4.2 kg) to 11.2 lb (5.1 kg) from the listed 1.48 US gal (5.6 L) to 1.8 US gal (6.8 L) capacity. Actual fuel density varies slightly, so treat it as a practical estimate.
