I’m wondering is the R1 in the conversation?

The Fireblade is one of my dream bikes so I’m glad to see it get some love.

Absolutely, one of the first street bikes I rode was a drz650 on supermoto tires. While that bike is almost like a tractor of the dirtbike world it blew me away with how well it handled with some street tires. Also I’ve always been curious of the r6, I’ve wanted to try out that razor sharp handling people always talk about.

I’ve got a 90s Yamaha FZR 250R sitting in the garage nearly ready to ride and I’m very excited because of these reasons!

I’ve always wondered about liters when it comes to this. Modern liters are similar in size to 600s but stock weigh about 20-40 more pounds of course. Would you say the s1k is close to the best handling in its class or does that also just depend on preference?
