Hey Guys...

Just curious..what does the viper weigh? Dry and wet?...
Also curious on other Yamaha sled weights...ie...SRX..SX...RX...
Apex and Nytro...
I haven't seen anything relating to this subject..But I recall Yamaha
saying that the Vector when it came out was slated as weighing the same
or close to the viper...
Curious...

thanks

All Dry (lbs.)

2009 Apex-575
2009 Nytro-522
2001 SRX-522
2005 RX-1-545
2004 Sx Viper-489
2002 SXR(600)-489

I am sure that with different engine sizes with the SRX and SXR the weights might vary a little.
 
huh!!! wow...I didn't think the viper was that light...thanks for the info...
Any idea what the ole Vmax pogos weighed..500/600/800...?
Thanks for the input
 
I weighed my sleds with stock car scales[used 3 of them]

1997 VMax4...568lbs fuel tank empty - all other fluids full - completely stock
2002 SRX ...564lbs fuel tank empty - all other fluids full - with reverse installed 121"
1 1/4" ripsaw

I have stretched the SRX to 144" 1 1/4" and installed lots of light weight parts and now have it down to 543lbs fuel tank empty - other fluids full

I weighed my viper, completely dry, and it was 530. Yamaha's list weight of 489 is a pipedream

was this a 121" viper? I know the 489 is not true, but there's no way my 02 121" viper is 530 dry. That would make it around 600lbs wet.
 
Yeah..for some reason I'm thinking the VIper is a tad heavier than 490lbs aswell...
Seeing the weight of the RX-1 above..and remember the Vector was slated to replace the Viper with the same weight...I'd say 530 seems to be closer to what I was thinking...
Basically I came off and ole VmaxXT Pogo to my Viper and noticed a change...my next purchase I'm hoping to add a lil more power and lighter again...aka Nytro...I was just curious to know the numbers...
keep em coming boyz!!!
