One issue is that very small displacement bikes take very different lines and don't brake as much. Learning to brake hard and trailbrake is an important skill.

A 600 is not a bad bike to learn to ride on the track.
that's my point. Me learning on the 1125 is not the best. I can compensate with shear power.
