This picture is obviously fake for multiple reasons. First, this bike is WAY more than 203lbs. Second, nobody on the planet I'd lifting this bike the way he is in the photo.

Scott Summers used to dead lift his XR600 the same way. It was 290lbs, not as heavy as a street bike, but it was the biggest tank of a dirt bike being raced at the time.

I'm wild ass guessing the bike in this pic would be about 350-400lbs.

This bike weighs 600+ lbs easily. Highly unlikely someone could lift that much uneven weight the way he is in the pic.

A Sportster with rear suspension/exhaust is about 550lbs. This is a straight piped hardtail, it's way under 600.
