Hey bros, i was just wondering, this is my first year a a rider and i had a few questions. For one i am 6.1 and 250 lbs. Yes i know it seems im too big for a 250R but i figured since they made it a little bigger in this year's model i could maybe give it a shot. I heard that the wieght limit is 300 lbs. (i obviously wont have a passenger) and so i was wondering if I would still be ok considering my size with handeling and what not. Please reply back with some advice on the 250R and what not.

Thanks bros.
