I just think it will teach you to be super careful with the loud pedal, whether it ends up being too much power isn't something you'll find out until you finish it. I know how i drive mine as stock and i'm not as fast into the corners as a few i know and i haven't the driving skill to be quicker so the only time i'd use more power would be in a straight line. Two problems for me there, one i'd be on it sooner .... and second ... i'd arrive at the next corner in all sorts of a rush.

NA for me all the way

I don't know how old you are UF but you talk like an elderly gentleman, which is fine by me because I am one. I almost feel(with the car anyway) that my mind is writing cheques my body can't cash.

Having said that when I get out on the bike I know that the traction control,which was an option on my bike would have spoilt it.If it doesn't spin up and slide it almost isn't worth riding it.I really really need to grow up.

It isn't so long a go that I had a tuned Supermoto and a tee shirt which read"if you ain't sliding you ain't trying"I still have the tee shirt, although I have gained some girth so almost certainly wouldn't fit me now.

39 if it helps so not that elderly but as far as driving goes, I know my limits - the reflexes and skills of Schumacher I do not have

I'm in the same hurry to grow up as i am to die haha

edit: funny that, the Supermoto is the only bike i'd really want as being a short arse, it's one of the few I actually fit on
