It has more than enough scoot available to upgrade you from "Do you know why I pulled you over?" right to "Good afternoon sir, you're under arrest, please step off the motorcycle".
Most of my small bike experience has been 40 and 50 mph in 20 and 30 mph corners so no worries there...
I have track time on FZR400s, TZ250s, SV650s and they will teach you more than a 600 or 1000 will. Not to say thelearning curve is safe and pain free.
Think these small cc 4 strokes are key to building a newbies confidence tho, at less refined and stable platforms that supersport they eventually upgrade to will feel like a jet fighter, but they will be more relaxed and comfy on it.
