I recently evenly-traded a new 2017 venom x20 vader2 for a 2015 honda cb300f with 7,500 miles. the guy said it just had new crankshaft installed at honda dealership because of a recall, he had gone in for new tires on it. the cb300f was totally stock when i traded. they do look similar....you would think a 1cyl thumper would give some thump, but it rides smooth as glass. i got it up to 80mph and prob could go a smidgen faster...
i am 6'2" 210lb, and my knees are bent slightly more than i want them to be. its almost as cramped as a ninja250 but not quite as bad. i am in my mid 40's and once i ride 30 min or so on this bike i want to rest my knees. i could stick it out for an hr ride but no more.... it does ride upright position and my back is comfortable. i do like the feel vision and handling of this bike, it does feel larger and heavier than a 286cc bike...it feels more like a 500cc from yrs ago....it has all the pickup i want...love love love the fuel injection.
