My 2008 ST-X D40 (2.5 6 speed manual) apparently has a tare weight of 1,965kg and a GVM of 2,805kg.
My current tare weight is actually 2,500kg. Give or take a few kg. Admittedly, that was with with full tanks (long range tank), recovery gear in the back etc... But I have to be careful when packing to make sure that I am legal with GVM when I travel, that's for sure.
Once I get my relocation to Tassie out of the way I will be commencing the process for a GVM upgrade - that will be mandatory.
It got me thinking though...who else has had their D40 over a weighbridge since accessorising it? Do you know what your actual tare weight is and therefore your load carrying capacity?
