Default how much weight?

Does anyone know what Honda thinks the max weight a CBR 900 can carry? I know you all cant wait to say dont worry just stay away from the big girls. But i just need to see what the max load is. Thanks for the help.

I would venture 600 LBS MAX! And you would probably bottom out the rear suspension here and there. The weight limit would depend on how much spring preload you put on the rear end. If you jacked the spring as low as she goes then who knows. The bike will not handle, and you would be better off with a cruiser with anything over 400-450 LBS. The max would be for an emergency. I wonder how the tires would fare? 40PSI isn't much when you distribute all the weight between two of them. Good question, I will do more homework on it later.

according to my clymer manual ... "maximum weight capacity" 350 pounds for US models and 400 for UK models. Define maximum weight capacity at your own discretion.

This is really funny!

Yeah its depends on the preload of the spring. You need to adjust it or I suggest to get a smaller girls (its OK if their ***** are big anyway)
