How much does your riding gear weigh?

[xmrider]

Just curious as to what everyone's riding gear weighs and how much it will vary. I weighed all my stuff right from socks to avy bag boots helmet ect. Everything you have on your body when you go riding. All my gear weighed out at 32 lbs i weigh 173 and with all my gear i am 205. Post up your weights!

good thread.

a lot of guys don't realize that they could save $1000-1500 in performance mods if they just shaved off a couple pounds instead.


whether it be in gear or the rider itself is your call : )

Now do we weigh it dry or do we build up some sweat and roll around in the snow so we know what the rtr weight is?

That's a good point. Good gear stays light and dry

So which gear stays lighter once riding? Klim? Motorfist? FXR? Doo?

Is there a significant difference in weight from a medium to a extra large?

We need some real world weights!

Good gear wicks the sweat away from your body to keep you dry and warm. It does get heavier as the day goes on.

Sure but some gear just down right absorbs it from the outside
