Weighed the Viper 162

[jrusher]

Wanted a base line weight number before adding turbo and cutting some weight..Sled had just under a half tank fuel If i have time I'll top her up and weigh it again.. Scale is a cheaper one but a rep here at a scale shop says its decent an accurate within a pound so should be close

Ride on, Thanks..... First post in the thread, Done! Now back to the Doo weight thread....

i have that same scale but not the cabellas brand. found it to be very accurate

Ya i called around today to bunch of the scale shops in town to rent one or buy a cheaper unit and the one rep tells me they sell a decent cheap unit and he seen same one at cabellas just relabeled he said its good accuracy so figured should do the trick.. Weighed sled a few times and each weigh in was within a pound so

nice, now another 30 pages and we might get a T3 weight

Wow that is pretty impressive. That might be lighter than the M1000? Interesting and thanks for sharing! I'm thinking the T3 will not be much different?

so about 600lb with full tank of gas ...

very interested in weight with turbo, sure a lighter sled would be nice but I dream of 240hp or more at 2500m ...

That's a very respectable number! What do you figure a mpi kit weighs?

i would guess 20-30lbs....the bonus is you loose the suitecase muffler, air box etc.....so I would guess a 10 pound gain total

Read on another site, that had everything weighed already, that the difference between everything removed and the MPI kit installed is only an additional 38lbs ....

This sled is #1 on my radar as I will be buying new sled next year. I will be demoing one this winter!

Snowest weighed a viper 153 with mpi turbo full wet came in at 640 last spring

I believe it only had a splash of fuel in it, they said

They topped fuel up in the video they did and weighed all three sleds.. Unless i missed something

 

[06yamahaapex]

Boost it and alpine kits will be significantly lighter than mpi due to the fact that they just have a downpipe off the turbo rather than a suitcase muffler

 

[jrusher]

Topped it right off with fuel.. Now time to add some HP and cut some easy weight :d

I think that is lighter than my M1000! Thanks, keep us posted when the turbo goes on. I am 240lbs and 6ft 4inches and I would consider myself about 50lbs heavier than the average rider give or take? I have know issues with throwing my 1000 around at all and looking forward to throwing my leg over one of these sleds! Being a bigger guy I notice a difference when I jump on a 800 sled vs my well running 1000! Thus why this sled appeals to me, same weight and more ponies!
