J Dev17 nice I learned a lot on my 500. I wouldn't start on anything smaller. It was comfortable, good on gas and could keep up with the group (up to 110mph) as you can see. Only cons were it has a weird helmet lock, the fairings are an absolute puzzle to takes off for oil changes and the gear ratios are really short (for acceleration) but that means your always looking for 7th on the highway and your rpms are higher than you want them to be cruising at 70 other than that I put 30k miles on her in 2 Years did 4 trackdays lowsided and rebuilt her twice and she's still kicking with her new owner
Stanimir Razvan the mirrors on this bike like most other bikes are useless and have huge blind spots so I just left them off after my first track day and always head check can't rely on them so why have them on the bike
👍👍

J Dev17 also make sure the bike you look at has had the fuel level sensor float arm recall done
sooo....no mirrors?
