Ive done a small amount of racing quite a few years back, (didnt do too badly either) .

The 500 single is somewhat lighter than the VFR400s and a lot lighter than the Suzuki twins of the 80s.

Additionally the standard setup is very forgiving (narrow engine) and so it shoudl be quite flickable. Only problem now is to fit into the leathers, they appear to have shrunk somewhat.

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"
