you can get an older bike that still runs great. bikes dont get ridden as much, so you can find older ones with low miles.i ride a 450 and it has plenty of power for me. i weigh 240

I would get a 98-99 Yamaha R1 you should be able to get one for that price. I wouldnt get anything smaller than a 750, Im speaking from experience a 600 is slow if you are a big guy.

I am 6"2 235 and used to have a 97 cbr 600 and it was too slow for my tastes. I now have an 05 gsxr 750 and absolutely love it.Are you big as in tall or big as in wide?
