N stands for Newtons. I believe you want its mass in kilograms.
The formula is: w = mg
w is the weight in Newtons
m is the mass in kilograms
g is the acceleration due to gravity
Substituting:
2450 = m (9.8 m/sec^2)
m = 2450/9.8
m = 250 kg.
The mass of the motorcycle is 250 kg (about 550 lb. in english units).

urr, Newtons is a unit for force, so the mass would be in kilograms.
But for mass, you would use:
F=mg
So, 2450=m(9.8)
2450/9.8=m.

mass cannot be in newtons, but it can be in kilograms and
m = weight/9.80 = 2450/9.80 = 250kg
