Why cant someone start with a gsxr 1000?
The throttle response of any sport bike over 600cc is lightening fast. Twist the throttle a little to much and the acceleration can be overwhelming to the point of panic . Sportikes can get away from you in an instant. Panic and fear take over to the point where all brain functions go into survival mode and your extremities lock up. Before you know it, you’re grabbing the hand grips in a death lock, unable to release the throttle to slow down. I’m not saying that’s what’s going to happen to you. Everyone is different. Experienced riders always suggest to new riders to start out on an under powered, light weight, “used” bike, until they get their confidence up and can ride without even thinking about what they’re doing. We just want to keep you safe.
