Some of them have been riding for years....one I know started on a 1000 >_<. I haven't pulled the trigger yet because I am not sure. Trying to make this as thought out and careful as possible, my roomie has a street triple R (675) that he has let me ride around an empty parking lot and yeah, it is a different experience altogether.
Honest question: is a 600 a bad idea just because of the torque/power delivery....or is it because it is too fast in general?

Really a different head space entirely. SMIDSY - Sorry mate, I didn't see ya!

Yep I hear that a lot, I have been looking into buying a bike for almost 3 months now, hell sometimes I don't even see them.....but that's when they are doing like 100 in a 45 >_>...that pretty common out here. The guys at the motorcycle shops know me by first name now, I keep coming in asking questions, looking for tips on how to ride etc. I am doing a great deal to make sure I don't make a bad choice on what I buy
