According to the test I read, unless I read it wromg, it weighs LESS than a CB1100DLX and just a skosh more than the std. I think std was 540, Bandit was around 560, and 570 for the DLX.
Really! I would have guessed 600 easily. It must carry a lot more of its weight up high. It felt very "tippy" sitting still. I'm guessing, like the CB, it probably feels more agile once in motion, but it was pretty sketchy feeling at rest. I'm still bummed...
