I was wondering if any of you feel that your body weight had any impact on your decision to choose the bike you did. I guess this question is geared more towards the experienced rider who has gone through a couple, three bikes already. Do you think weighing over 200lbs has a significant affect on the bikes handling, torque, hp.. etc.. especially on a 600cc bike vs. a liter bike?
Im 6' 155lbs. So there was no consideration in my weight on the bike. As far as the bikes concerned im negligeble. As for being a heavier guy, I had a buddy who had the same bike and he was 240+ and it moved him about quite rapidly.
