Go a 600 or go a thou>?

[devolved]

I'm probably getting ahead of myself, but in a few short months, money and skillz willing, I can upgrade.

I've presumed that I would get something around 600cc, so I get used to the power, and possibly find that its more than enough. However, someone this weekend asked me why I wouldn't just get a thou... "I'm not sure" I thought, "fear of death?".

Is there a huge difference between to 2 - if I can handle a 600cc+\-, an I handle a thou?

Good question and one that has somewhat surprisingly never been asked on this site before.

Split the difference and get a 750?

The powerband is different between 600cc and 1000cc. It really depends how you ride the bike. Some say 600cc is good enough and others say 1000cc.

[filbert]

get a cruiser unless the awesomeness of 1600cc+ is too much for you.

Otherwise get a busa they're only 1300cc.

You should get a GSXR750 or a street triple. Girls normally like those bikes.

Are you a stand up comedian? Your humour is sharp and cutting.

Let me google that for you

Get the bike that feels right and that you can afford. If you lack self control, you could still manage to kill yourself on a 50cc scooter.

Dread to think what the scooter owners get called

Are you sure?

I'm sure there must be one thread on that subject...

Sorry, due to the nature of the reponses let me make a small fix that for you all....

In that case...

Are you sure the Hyo isn't too much for you already?

Probably, but I want to make some friends.

I saw an old bloke trundling down Main Street on exactly the same thing, with the added mod of a giant aussie flag on the back. Needless to say it became hard to hide my chubby.

Coming soon:
"I just bought a czxr750 but I'm still on my RE's. Will I have insurance if I ride it without a shadow?
p.s. can I have a shadow?

[Hades]

Let me rephrase: 1000cc has more juice than the 600cc sibling.
