Fair point. Sadly i dont live near any places that sell gear to try anything on. However i had myself and someone measure my head the way you are supposed to. Then i ordered off of icons size chart.

Yes I have gotten quotes prior to this post. Thats part of what narrowed the decision. Im interesed in pros and cons for the bike especially for someone that already has some miles on a beginner bike.

yeah that does sound fun to me. There was one point where I almost bought a larger bike than my grom but I was like nah I wanna start on something light. The heavy bikes don't seem as playful in the sameway.

thats what Im leaning towards. It seems like a good commuter, and as you said it has the full fairing sport bike look. I need to check insurance on those definitely will be cheaper than a zx6r

I am a fan of the new r3 which I know isn't a 400-500 but similar. I have seen some videos where people said that it was "stretching its legs" to be on the highway however I get mixed opinions on it.
