I can’t see the link because I’m at work, but by the replies it looks like a big bike. look, I bought a 2002 gsxr 600. it’s my very first bike. I believe everything comes down to you. if you are irresponsible, it doesn’t matter if you have a big or a small bike because 30, 40 or 50 mph is the same in a 250 and a 600. almost every accident is the rider’s fault. put it like this “a hammer is a useful tool, but in the hands of a murderer is a dangerous weapon.” you have to be aware of the power that a 600 has, so you need some throttle control. I’ve been happy riding with no drama yet. once the bike is running, the weight doesn’t matter. I rather have power and use it at will than want it and don’t have it. just be safe and resposible.
