Sounds a bit too light, most big bikes are around 150kg and up, I would have thought that more than 1/3 of the weight as engine. I may be wrong though...

From memory I think my bandit is 170kg, and moving the spare gsx-r engine I had (600) was really difficult and not to blow my own trumpet I'm quite strong so would have thought it was more than 55kg, maybe more like 75 actually?

55 - 60kg sounds about right for a ZX10r to be honest. Probably closer to the 60kg but not far off. Its lighter than an 06 R1 and i easily picked one of those up off the ground and carried it about at chest height

yep the zx10 is very light, i lifted it into the car by hand and im not particularly big.

i would say 55-60 is about right
