They're scary. h: I'd recommend staying at 600cc or under for a beginners bike.
This old CB750 my friend built that he wants to sell will make a good beginners bike, it's probably what I'd buy if I was getting one. It's like a '68 or something and he did some custom things on it, like the straightpipes h:. It rides hard and it's pretty stripped down which I like, a good basic bike.

Definently scary, I was trying to see how fast the 954 would accelerate and keep the wheel down. I was leaning forward as much as possible and I only barely got it wide open by the top of first.
