having ridden on almost every bike on the market today (thanks to bike week and all the manufacturers giving test rides). i can definitely see the appeal of a bigger bike. but i can honestly say after riding all those bikes the only one i'd seriously consider moving up to at this point is the kawi 650r
just seemed to be the perfect blend of power and practicality.
i don't plan on moving up any time soon and i may never actually make that leap. mostly because i just don't see the sense in spending the extra money for that extra power that i'll never really use. i'm a right hand lane driver who never goes over the speed limit so it would be sort of wasted on me. but even still i can fully understand why you would want that extra pep even just getting up to the speed limit.
for me though, if i do ever wind up getting a bigger bike like the 650r it'll be for comfort not for speed.
