Thanks de dee and Stig. This is tremendously helpful. Unless I'm going camping I hope to be well under those weight figures.

The GVWR with front/rear axle and tires is listed on the Serial # plaque.
This has been standard for years.

Its located on the centerstand mount for the Downtown.

Subtract the weight of the bike (4xx lbs) from the GVWR 768 lbs.
The 4xx should take into account all fluids and what stuff you have added.

Ie , 768 - 411 = 357 lbs carrying capacity.
2012  DT 300i  26K miles,  Bestem 929, Biondi w/s, LED brake/tail,turn, OEM mirrors fairing mount, removed buttstop
2015  GTi300  7K miles, Bestem 929 case, PUIG TS w/s, mirrors mounted to w/s, led DRLs in windguards
2014  Honda CTX700,  35Kmiles, many mods

That’s two passenger and maybe an overnight bag, or the full content of what’s under my seat. Damn, I may be over with just my security chain if I ride with a passenger.
