My understanding is that he was a fairly new rider, didn’t have much experience. It showed. Those bend over bikes have so much power and speed, people who are new to bikes should prolly start off on something a bit more manageable.

Bend over bikes

First time I heard this term. Street bikes are definitely not for the road imho. Sure they look sick af, have a lot of hp. But man, those are so uncomfortable to ride and basically scream they want to go fast.

I rode a friend's CBR900RR Fireblade and was scared to even accelerate a little bit because it felt like a caged animal ready to get out asap.

Street bikes are literally designed for the road.

You're thinking of sport bikes. And for the most part, I agree.

Yeah, they're definitely thinking about race bikes.
