Hello,
I have just passed my Motorcycle Safety Course and got my M2, I used to ride dirt bikes before and BMX all day long. So happened that I got 1999 Katana 600 as a first bike, but after playing with it and trying it on a parking lot, I am worried...When I did the course and tried other bikes (I used CB300F at course) I didn't care, I was 100% sure where bike was going and when I am in control. In case of my bike, I am legitimately scared, it seems to be overweighting me and be very hard to turn (not as making a turn, but literally turning the wheel). I am a tall guy - 6.2 but weight only 125-130 tops, I would't say I am weak, but definitely not superhero. So my question is, might this be "come and go" issue, or this is just a wrong bike for me?
