Hi everyone I'm new to this so this is my first post ever as the title says I'll be getting my very own 959 panigale I've been watching countless hours of YouTube videos about the gorgeous 959 to inform myself as much as possible.
A little background about myself I'm a 24 year old guy going to be 25 in November so it's going to be a late birthday present for me I work a full time job so I'm considering getting it for work purposes and to have fun on the weekends as well, my very first motorcycle is a honda cbr 250r I've been riding that for the past two months and I feel comfortable with the motorcycle but I feel it two slow. I've started to save up for quite some time now for the 959 (white version) but I'm not sure if I should jump from the 250 to the Panigale. I know that the 959 isn't cheap it's going to be about $15k+ that's why I won't be getting it till next year and the other reason being is because where I live it gets cold since I'm from Chicago so about 5-6 months of winter which gives me plenty of time to save up for the 959.
How is the weight of the 959 compared to other motorcycles asking because I'm currently well have been going to dyalisis for the past 2 years going to be 3 this December so I have a fistula on my left arm which I've been taking care of for 2 years now going on to 3. I go 3x a week for 4 hour each of those days I won't be riding on my treatment days since I most likely feel drained and very nauseous after each treatment since it's a harsh on the body and it takes a toll and I won't be capable of driving a motorcycle wouldn't want to risk my life or crashing the 959. I will most likely be riding on the days that I don't go to treatment and on the weekends and I'll be doing short rides no far rides or cruises only locally.
I've been looking to do msf course before I get the panigale. I know insurance companies give out discounts on people that have completed it.
So I'd like to know as much information of the 959 as possible anything helps.
Thanks in advance.
