any time i hear someone say a certian cc bike is too big i crack up. no one everwill say, naw i dont need a 3.2Lconversion, i am only talented enough for a 2.7L. if the bike is physically to big, that is one story, but anything other than that is BS. that is what the throttle and selfcontrol is for. you can putt around on the latest offerings from ducati and never really tap into its full potential. i have a 2000 honda F4i in my garage right now, and i love it. believe me, that thing has stretch my arms back so hard, it is difficult to back off on the throttle. the riders here know what i am talking about. you are hanging on so tightly, you dont have the strength to roll the gas back off. woooweee! get the ducati if you want, i agree i want one too. but dont get all bummed when some flyboy in a 600 japanese bike smokes you through the turns. reminded me of the time an old school GPZ blasted me into the weeds with a blown rear shock. i was humbled...haha
