Suzuki Intruder Classic 400 weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This is a very heavy motorcycle. Good footing, sensible parking direction and avoiding awkward slopes make a real difference when handling it at walking speed. 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

A full tank is not weightless: the 3.96 US gal (15 L) to 4.49 US gal (17 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 24.6 lb (11.2 kg) to 27.9 lb (12.7 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Suzuki 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 Intruder Classic 400.
The calculated power-to-weight figure is 5.99 hp per 100 lb across years with compatible data. It shows how much engine output is available relative to the bike’s mass.

Suzuki Intruder Classic 400 weight FAQ

How much does the Suzuki Intruder Classic 400 weigh?

The source data gives 537.9 lb (244 kg) to 606.3 lb (275 kg) as dry weight. A fueled, road-ready bike will weigh more than this figure.
