Steering is pretty quick for highway speeds. Don't let your attention wander or you risk road rash.

I think the steering is a little fast for open desert riding but, in slower technical stuff it works well. I do enjoy pleasure riding at 45MPH on public roads.

Hmmmm if you want to do highway speeds, then by all means drop the rear down to a 40 and maybe get a 15 for the front.

So you're 2 ft tall and weigh 80 lbs? WOW! Oh thats right you were banned, so basically I'm talking to nobody. Got it.
