Whats the stock wet weight of a shafty gs1000g compared to a gs1000e? I look online and both bikes a listed at 562lbs. This has to be wrong the shafty is much heavier.. isn't it?

I've seen 601.9 lbs for the 81 1000G.http://img633.imageshack.us/img633/811/douMvs.jpg
1980 GS1000GT (Daily rider with a 1983 1100G engine)
1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)
Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

Suzukicycles.org lists the DRY weights as 507 for the E and 543 for the G.
Add in 5.8 gallons of fuel and 4 quarts of oil, the weight does go over 600.

Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!Comment

True, but your 1000 is decidedly NOT stock.
