I have an AN1x (slightly tilted) and an EX5 (flat) on a Quik-Lok rack. If I
sit in an office chair (with little wheels) and push the AN1x, the AN1x
moves. If I push the EX5, I move. And I weigh close to100 kilos (yes, I
should lose some 15 kilos). You know what 'heavy' is when you've tried to
move an EX5 in its box.
But I think size is more of a problem than weight. Yamahas tend to come in
very large boxes (my EX5 box could easily contain a child or a small adult)
and space is what counts. Weight as well, but to a less degree.
