I need advice on what the heaviest bikes I should be looking at are, which bikes will make me fly off the back, which ones I wont be able to control and will kill myself on etc
If you were in my situation, what bike would YOU get?
Initially i was going to suggest the GN250 but as you say you want to go for hours and refer to LAMS what about a mid-range bike, 4 - 600. After a GN250 I went to a 400, found the power increase was about right. If you to ride long distances and enjoy the scenery then stick with road or crusier styling, if you want to see how fast you can get from A - B then go sport. At just on 6 ft I didn't enjoy the cramped knees the VFR400 caused on long rides, nor the pressure on the wrists (higher speeds helped that ) but did ride it from Greymouth to Palmerston North OK, the rest on the ferry helped.
