After riding a GS500F for a year I made the jump to a Honda CBR 1000RR. Before I made the purchase I questioned myself if I was ready for such a drastic change but it turned out to be a great move. I had confidence in my riding ability but I was initially intimidated by the big ole CBR. It took me about a month to get used to the power but I was careful and didn’t go beyond my abilities. I soon got confidence and I’ve been riding my CBR for two years.
Some riders may disagree with my drastic change but it worked for me. You have to assess your skill level and definetly be comfortable with your riding abilities. Good luck to you.
