Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

WARNING
Exceeding the gross vehicle weight rating of your vehicle can reduce stability and handling and could cause loss of control. NEVER exceed the GVWR of your vehicle.
The maximum load capacity of your vehicle is the maximum weight you may add to your vehicle without exceeding the GVWR. This capacity is determined by calculating the difference between your vehicle’s GVWR and wet weight. Refer to the Specifications chapter for details.
Refer to the manual’s Specifications section or the Manufacturing Information/VIN label on the vehicle frame for model-specific information. See the Safety and Information Labels section for details.
When determining the weight you will be adding to your vehicle, and to ensure you do not exceed the maximum load capacity, include the following:
  • operator body weight
  • passenger body weight
  • weight of all riders’ apparel and items in or on apparel
  • weight of any non-factory-installed accessories
  • weight of any additional cargo on the vehicle
