Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
Gross Vehicle Weight is the maximum allowable weight of the vehicle, and includes the
total weight of the motorcycle, the operator, and the passenger. NEVER exceed the
motorcycle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. Exceeding the weight rating can reduce
stability and handling and could cause loss of control.
• The weight of the motorcycle includes the motorcycle and all of its fluids, any
accessories and their contents, and any additional cargo on the motorcycle.
• The weight of the operator or passenger includes body weight, all apparel and objects
in or on apparel.
• Examples of loading and calculating Gross Vehicle Weight are included on the following
pages. Refer to the specifications section of this manual (beginning on page 239) or to
the certification label (located under the rear console panel in front of the seat) for
additional GVWR information on your specific model.
