Warning: Do not exceed the motorcycle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). Exceeding these weight ratings can lead to component failure and adversely affect stability, handling and performance, which could result in death or serious injury.
- GVWR is sum of weight of motorcycle, accessories and maximum weight of rider, passenger and cargo that can be safely carried.
- GAWR is maximum amount of weight that can be safely carried on each axle.
- The GVWR and GAWR are shown on information plate, on frame downtube.
Note: The maximum additional weight allowed on motorcycle equals Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) minus running weight. For example, a motorcycle with GVWR of 544 kg (1200 lbs) having a running weight of 363 kg (800 lbs), would allow a maximum of an additional 181 kg (400 lbs) combined weight of rider, passenger, riding gear, cargo and installed accessories.
