    I've had big bikes my whole life, im now 58 years old and just got into small cc bikes and im having more fun than i have had in many years, they are cheap, easy to work on, light, nimble and great on gas, not to mention the parts are affordable, for me it just makes sense 👍.

      Great, reliable, easy to ride bike! Nobody needs a 600 or 1000 unless they want to lay it down and possibly die. I'll never go above a 300. Don't need to go 190 mph, ever. 🤷🏼‍♂️😬

    The only problem with these bikes is that they're bit cramped after the first hour of a long ride but performance-wise what more do you want? It'll cruise at 75/80. That's all you can legally do in most countries. They're great looking bikes too. Street fighter styling, not for me. Sorry.

      I had a CBR125R that I loved, then I had a CBR500R (on my profile picture) and you know what ? I prefered a lot more the 125 ! The position, the high RPM compared to only 8000. The 500 is just a roadster, the position is not sport at all, it’s perfect for long roads/highway at a stabilized speed, it’s comfortable. But the pleasure… nothing, no pleasure with this bike, ok it’s a bit powerful, but it’s… empty, I don’t know how to say in English but it brings no emotion. And the 2 cylinders make it so annoying at low speed when you’re not in the good gear. I decided to take a 250 (because it was closer to my ancient 125 that I loved) and now I’m reviving, really, it’s light, powerful (not as the 500 but brings SENSATIONS !!) I don’t regret my choice it’s by far the best motorcycle for daily driving and having fun with the same bike

    I was shopping around for something new with fuel injection, maybe a ninja 400, but seeing this I don't think I'll go to something smaller. It's not about feeling like I'm going fast, it's about going the speed limit and not spending 30 seconds getting there.
