small bike

[trykemike]

I think the gz250 is a small bike relative to a harley elctra-glide or Kawa Vulcan or ....
but it is also not a small bike for someone my size 5'6" / 160 lbs.
It is the same size as any 1970 era 250-500 machine in dimensions and weight even triumph 650 bonnevilles were only slightly heavier @ 375 lbs.
In my youth most guys chopped bike to make them lower and lighter.
I guess it is all a matter of perspective.
My 6 ft + buddies consider my 250 physically small relative to their Harleys and Vulcans
I consider their bike physically way too big and heavy.
We both however consider our respective bikes right-sized.
We all can ride at the posted speed limits here in Ontario which are 80 , 90 , 100 km/hr.

Size ? It is all a matter of perspective.
