   If I could only have one #motorcycle, it would be one with a displacement of less than 700cc. :3

     The idea of a Grom is appealing, but my past experience with a Honda ADV150 showed me the limitations of such small bikes on public roads.

     Once you start going bigger, you just expend more energy just lugging that lump of a motor. Sure, more power means that it probably won't be sluggish when accelerating, but the heavier bike is more work moving it side to side.

     The 648cc inline-four in my CBR650R is my favorite #motorcycle engine so far. :3c
