Any motorcycle over 250cc is fast enough to put you in a tobacco field again, that wasn't speed, that was riding over your head. The CB can be ridden sanely but so could a street triple. The right wrist and brain control all of that.
The CB is a great motorcycle, easy to ride, great brakes, more than decent handling, but it is up to you to keep it out of the fields.
When you start a statement with that in my opinion it means you ARE going to be condescending and you were.
I know why I crashed and know how I will ride from now on.
I appreciate your attempt at giving me some useful information but it also reminded me why I don't like to participate in forums because there is always somebody who assumes they more about you than you.
Thanks to everybody else for their participation as well. Lots of great information.
