Weights of Bags

« on: December 14, 2011, 01:11:32 PM »

Hi folks, first post here. Sitting around for a few months with a shattered ankle and found this site. Lovin' it. Y'all are game. thumbsup

I am making a few pieces of gear for my next round of desert trips. I would like to assemble some data on bag weights. I would particularly like to know what some of the big seat bags weigh, and their respective volumes. Frame and bar bags too. Anybody got a scale out there that wouldn't mind throwing out some numbers? Maybe a pic to go with? Any help is much appreciated. Ride on. -Dan

Gas tank = 3.5 oz
Medium Framebag = 10oz
Small/Medium Saddlebag -4.5-7.5litre- 9oz
Medium/Large Saddlebag -5-10 litre- 11oz

All of the weights are for gear made mainly from X-Pac vx-42 except the s/m saddlebag which is mostly vx-21.
