My 2001 MXC200 is fully street legal with no corners cut. That includes full DOT lighting with hi/lo headlight, real turn signals and front and rear brake lights. It also has two mirrors and four reflectors. In other words fully DOT compliant. It was also weighed with a stout Flatlands aluminum skid plate and full wrap Cycras.

With a little over three gallons of gas it came to 226 pounds. So figure maybe 205 pounds with an empty tank. Stripping it down like that 200 with minimal lighting or DOT stuff and no protection would probably put it around 195 pounds. So that is a pretty impressive job for a four stroke. A very cool build.

But I prefer my featherweight to be a rocket. Different strokes and all that.

Anyone got a real world/personally measured/unbiased 3rd party weight for a 2006 Ducati Multistrada?
