I don't believe that for a second.

I've weighed 695/750/800 Monsters and they're 400-ish ready to ride.
My S4 with Mag Marchesinis ~415 dry.

KTM 950 SE R,  purportedly 410-420 dry.

My buddy's KTM 950ADV was good in the dirt, but still a heavy bike.

Pretty sure Ducati measures their dry weight with no fuel, oil, or battery. So, add ~6lbs for oil, ~24lbs for fuel, another ~9lbs for a battery, and you're at 407.
2005 S2R800
2006 S2R1000
2015 Monster 821

They used to measure the older models with just no fuel. They always looked heavier on paper than Japanese bikes but were actually lighter when measured.

Holy God that's cool.

I wonder how it handles with clip ons. Surely you'd give up steering leverage.

I'm almost tempted to give this a shot

My guess would be, if it's possible, that the shit eating grin would last all day.  ;)

Just spent some time reading about RSD super single conversions [drool]
