Yeah, if he has a death wish.....Me i gotz a 929rr....and its the 98 so it's still only 375 lb which is good for its engine size...the newer r1s and gsx-r 1000s got a litttttle heavier, but r still by far excellent bikes...

if u r really a beginner, get a cbr600 or r6....very fast, and easy to use...

what does it feel like riding ,is it smother riding a sports bike, compared to riding a 125 on the road, and is it easy or the same to have it balanced

if you cant keep a bike balenced while in motion then you have equalibrium problems..... but anyways a 125 is easier to throw around, theres no weight there. but a streetbike will give you an agressive feel, like its steady but able to change its stance whenever you want it to. thats why new riders usually wreak on streetbikes, they give you a "big head" and make you think your experienced, then you forget that your only riding on about 4 inches of a rubber contact patch

yea ,i understand , so if i just ride for a couble months around town and some back roads, doing the speed limit and get the feel until it comes more naturally to go fast or get me lean in a corner? how long did it take you to get the feel and all?
