You should buy when fell in love with it. "I am looking to buy something though adn once I started reading aobut that bike I realized that was "it"...i have spoken to a dealer who said that if that is the one I want, I should get it becuase you learn how to handle it but I also don´t want to be stupid. He said it was all in the wrist."
Your dealer is absolutely right. It´s all in the wrist (and it´s a short distance from zero to full throttle). Difference from your 600 sport bike will be the torque, so you dont have to crank all gears up to get some performance. Just start with driving low rpm and use the higher gears...still enough torque there. If you can use your hand with some finetuning you´ll have no troubles. The triple is only dangerous when driving digitally (zero or full gas). Handling is like a 600ccm bike, and weight too! It´s up to you but I say GO FOR IT! YAY.
