Ive been riding and racing dirtbikes for 9 years now, and Im ready to hit the street. I ride a 1991 CR 500 and a 2005 KDX 220. I really want the tl 1000 for the street because I love the looks, V-twin torque, good power throughout the RPM range, and Ive heard great things about them. My only problem is Im height challenged. Im 5´3. Im able to sit on the CBR 600´s, ZX-12, GSXR 1000´s at the bike shop, but just barely. Im at the very tips of my toes on most of them. So my question is- should I be able to fit the TL, or is it a particularly big bike? Should weight be an issue?
Also, what is the power like between this bike and a GSXR 750? Thanks alot.
