Kawasaki 1400 GTR weight FAQ
What does the Kawasaki 1400 GTR weigh ready to ride?
The supplied figures span 687.8 lb (312 kg) for wet/running weight and 615.1 lb (279 kg) to 670.2 lb (304 kg) for dry weight across the years in this page. Wet weight is the better guide to what you actually manage on the road.
Is the Kawasaki 1400 GTR heavy compared with other Kawasaki motorcycles?
Relatively speaking, it is on the heavier side. The model sits near the 91st weight percentile in its Kawasaki category, so it is heavier than most of the compatible comparison set.
Does the Kawasaki 1400 GTR weight change by model year?
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 Kawasaki 1400 GTR fuel weigh?
The listed tank capacity is 5.8 US gal (21.95 L) to 5.81 US gal (22 L). Using approximately 0.745 kg/L gasoline, a full tank is roughly 36.1 lb (16.4 kg) to 36.1 lb (16.4 kg). That is an estimate for fuel mass, not an official Kawasaki curb-weight calculation.
How heavy is the Kawasaki 1400 GTR with an average-size rider?
A 180 lb rider brings the simple bike-plus-rider total to roughly 867.8 lb (393.6 kg) using the representative wet/running figure. Gear and luggage would add more.

Based on the available dry-weight and tank-capacity data, a full-tank estimate is 651.2 lb (295.4 kg) to 706.3 lb (320.4 kg). Oil, coolant and market-specific equipment can still make actual ready-to-ride weight different.
How much torque does the Kawasaki 1400 GTR have per 100 lb?
The calculated torque-to-weight range is 14.58 lb-ft per 100 lb to 16.31 lb-ft per 100 lb. It is useful for comparing bikes with very different overall weights.
