Marines would not whine about the weight of a bike.

They might complain, gripe, or bitch about it.

But never whine.

Curb weight of the gas model is 337 lb, so I don't think the diesel is going to weigh too much more.

I have the post-2008 gas model, which actually does run 400lbs, and it's a beast, but still quite nimble offroad.
