Thanks for the info Barra.

So I reckon a TTR with all the fluids inside is going to weigh 130-135KG.

Has anyone weighed theirs, with a spare inner tube on the front mudguard, rear fender bag full etc etc?

Even more unlikely, anyone know what a wet DRZ E400 weighs?

Brilliant ...

131Kg for a TTR & a DRZ E 250, assuming a 400 is likely to be the same...they weigh exactly the same.

As for the extras, love the photo, took me a moment to realise it was a TTR under all that. Tell us a bit more about the photo...must have become a short trip with all that on?

A link to the original article containing the picture is HERE

It is a blog of a TTR traveller called Ken Thomas and makes very good reading.

 I remember reading about this problem in TBM on a test bike they had. I think the spacer that the seal ran on was plain steel which would rust and then tear the seal.

There were after market stainless ones available for the early bikes but I have a feeling that Mr Suzuki fitted spacers that didn't rust on the later bikes so the problem was (or is) cured.

Looking at the pictures of the loaded bikes reminded me of my trip in with a cooker hood and pipework and fittings to fit the kitchen sink. But not the kitchen sink, so I can't claim to have everythingcry

I remember riding the enduro DRZ kickstart only and the DRZ E, both of them felt physically bigger than the TTR, taller and heavier. If my memory serves me right the battery is mounted high up making the c of g feel high on a bike that already felt high.  For me the DRZ was too cumbersome compared to the TTR although the  DRZ engine is sweet as a nut, very linear but the oil seals on the gearbox sprocket were constantly leaking, perhaps the new ones have that fixed.
