yes it can happen with any bike, but a 1000 cc is less forgiving compared to a 600 cc…but, there’s no point in arguing with n00b squids…and no, riding dirtbikes your entire life does not count as experience… ---

it’s the low end and instant on torque that is the problem. by the flick of the wrist it’s easier to go up and over compared to a 600. on tight turns too much throttle and you’re done for…the 600 is more forgiving with having less torque and less weight. but, hey it’s your life. i really shouldnt care if you crash and die… ---

Same could be said for the car I drive on slicks and skinnies/no swaybars, in a bad situation the car wont handle/stop very well, but its a taken risk that I feel is a payoff for the gained performance. Same way I look at the bike I guess… ---
