Only bike i’ve ridden outside of the MSF course has been my WR250R dual sport. Looking to get a street bike since i’ve moved recently. I’m not concerned about the jump in power as I trust my throttle control.
Only thing i’m not sure about is going from a 300LB bike to a 445LB bike. I’m not as concerned for the weight when doing normal speed turns, more so when messing around in a parking lot doing low speed tight turns as I like to practice.
I’m not sure how much physical strength plays into this if needing to save it in a parking lot, but if you think it matters, i’m 5’11 160LB average - slightly above average strength. I want to know if I do have to put a foot down to save it if i’m cooked or not. Never dropped my WR250R doing this but felt i had to put a foot down a few times.
Thanks.
