[QUOTE="96stanggt, post: 8967837, member: 21828"] That's too much bike for somebody that young. I'm saying this as somebody who's first bike was a 600 and the bike I learned to ride on was a 600. The newer ones are scary fast right out the box, high 10 second bikes that can trap 130mph. My 600 has your basic bolt-ons and while nothing special on the highway, it's nasty in 1st and 2nd gear. Yeah it's all about wrist control, but one little slip up thinking he's still on that little 250 and he gives a new 600 too much throttle and it's game over. We were all there at one point, you're very easily influenced at that age. I was a very responsible kid, but I did stupid shit in my 96 GT (dog slow) that I had in HS that parents would have killed me for. Had I been on a 600cc bike things would probably be much different.
