I think that fear can keep you out of trouble in some situations, it's probably better than the opposite (ie people riding with reckless abandon and no fear). The big question is are you conscious enough with yourself and your abilities that you can keep from using that extra bit of throttle. That you know your personally not prepared for the events that might take place by that action. If the question to that answer is an honest yes, than it really shouldn't matter what bike your on.
I like how if I say something that you don't agree with you have some dumbass bullshit to say about what's happened to me in the past. Yeah, i've wrecked my bike (a few times.. some my fault, some not), i can admit i've made bad decisions on my bike at times. no i didnt really respect the power when i first got it. was i scared of wot? no. My experiences have made me a better/smarter rider. Bringing up what's happened to me in the past didn't prove a goddamn thing about what's being said here. I really think you just do it to try to make me seem like some jackass, and I dont really appreciate that. I still stand by being scared to WOT a 600cc bike is pretty fucking lame. Lastly, dont act interested in how im doing when hanging out and chatting it up with folks because I know you dont really give a shit. So dont waste your time trying to seem like a decent human being. thanks.
