[QUOTE="drk98, post: 688859, member: 29318"] Going 60 with knobbies isn't going to give you more traction ON the road because it ride gets pretty bumpy(esp. w/ stiff shocks). You said the 650 is OK in trails until it gets tight and I believe you. The kind of trails a 650 can take are desert(baja), rocks, and light trails(not in the woods). Mostly trails where you can maintain a fast pace. I guess I shouldn't use the word 'trails' anymore. How 'bout woods riding which means tight trails, hills, creeks, logs, and stuff INSIDE the woods, forest, or what ever you want to call it. Yes the smallest bike I would safely take on the highway a KLX300, wait a XR200 maybe but you might get blowed around(you don't want either). The 'big block' is whats going through your head after you try to go highway speeds on a hairpin curve. Esp if the road is wet. More weight = more centrifical force. More weight = more pain. [/QUOTE]
