Is it too much to move from a 250 to 1000 right after getting fulls?

There's something about stupidity that seems to be contagious. Yes, a thou is too much for you. Actually, a 600 is too fast for you. A modern 600 has more than you can adjust to, and the process is brutally Darwinian. But, the tools on kiddie biker will say there's little difference, and it's all about how you twist the throttle. You'll be so far out of your depth that either luck or grim will help out.

I've witnessed people dying that thought they could ride with restraint but found out too late that they were wrong. Or am I sounding like katman?

Sure, the bikes are easy to ride. But it's much harder to ride without being a fuckwit when you think that you know you could be riding much faster than you currently are.

Toouche.

"cause a thou is harder to ride than a 600...something called torque" ... because you now have one extra issue to deal with that you didn't have before. Adding more issues for your brain to have to deal with does not make it easier.

open the throttle, and the power is there, it also offers a smoother riding experience if you do it right.

go into a corner too hot, just open her up to pull it out, no flatness like a 600 at 3000rpm

and there also is the problem... a rocky, dampness, debri... ohhh oh light up, side step, high side so the 600 has a more forgiving reaction cos it never lit up.
