You know what's stupid about that?.... A 600 and a 1000 have approximately the same weight and handling characteristics so the same rider can basically enter the same corner at the same speed on either bike...

I used to think the larger crank and pistons would make for larger centrifugal force to offset, BUT! Litres rev lower. The couple thousand rpm difference may actually make those forces closer than most people think. I have no hard facts to back this up, just something I was thinking about one day.. |
