Question Accurate weight of YFM200?

Anyone know the weight of a YFM200? About 1895? Reason for asking is I'm nearly finished a custom trailer build for carrying this, plus a Suzuki LTZ400.

Can't find the weight online for the YFM, or LTZ for that matter, and I'm aiming to make the trailer a nice balance of good tongue weight and nice stable towing.

Trailer is long, and I was thinking the YFM would be heavier than the LTZ, need accurate enough figures to determine axle placement on trailer.

Cheers all!

1895? That's an old one!

It should weigh around 400-450 pounds. The LTZ should weigh around 390-400 pounds. That's with all fluids, not the "dry" weight. I don't see there being enough weight difference to matter how you build the trailer. When I built my 6'x12' trailer, I just went to Tractor Supply and measured one of their trailers and built mine just like it lol! And it pulled great!

373 pounds (full of gas and oil), according to my brother's 1985 owner's manual.
