You can especially with your brakes. Just start a little at at time at every stop be sure your body is positioned to the front of your seat, both your legs are squeezing the tank, and let the break go if you feel you're in trouble. Baby steps. :)

I'm a big "wimp". :)

You know, I get the feeling you like the hypermotard better than the CBR. ;)

:laughing: yeah, I've been riding my motard a lot lately. The problem is the CBR is only good for aggresive twisty riding and the track. Both those things I can't really do when riding with my Girl.

Is that comfortable on long rides?

Hmmm, maybe the question is = are either of them comfortable on long rides?

The motard is a lot more comfortable compared to the CBR for longer rides unfortunately its just not as fast. :D
