The biggest bike I rode was a Husky 400 dirt bike. Once. I was thinking of moving up from a Husky, Husquavarna, 250. I test rode it once and said no thanks. Haven't ridden a bike since 1971 when I buried the 250s front end into the wall of a wash.

Liter bikes these days are ridiculous. And this one is at or near the top of the heap.
