Title: Engine weight?
Post by: TGR on June 11, 2009, 12:48:56 PM
Does anyone know the weight of a  gs500e engine ?

I need to find a courier that will collect and delivery one but need to know what it weights.

56lbs? that's it? I always see pictures of people who have pulled their bikes apart, and taking the engines out and wonder how they pulled that one off, but I guess if it's only 56lbs, I won't be afraid to pull an engine out if I ever really have to. In the mean time, I'm going to try not to pull any engines out.

Kilograms, my friend, kilograms.  Metric is your friend.  That comes to just under 125 pounds. :D
