I know rossi is 5'11 @ 140 lbs... I would say the average is between 150-160 lbs... In 250 I would say around the same, maybe a little less. In 125 probably around 120 lbs..

Im 225 lbs 6'1 And i can outrun them all in corners due to more trackion to rear tire :)

More weight=More slip

I think Yates fights in the light heavy division.:2bitchsla

5'7" 135, maybe, if I could ride like them.......

Cool im the same height and weight as rossi. :crash

:eek: the lighter the better. makes for overall weight, rider and bike. or else they would be racing heavier bikes. also helps in acceleration and braking. :sleep

All other classes (250, MotoGP) all have minimum weight restrictions that must be met, not including the rider. It's different depending on the number of cylinders, but averages ~150 kg (~330lbs) for MotoGP and 100kg (220lbs) for 250.
