[QUOTE="James, post: 56135, member: 2"] One word, "momentum". If you can keep your momentum up in corners (via proper technique), the size of the engine isn't that important. One reason 450f's are popular, especially with beginners as that they'll take a corner pretty slow and then use the 450's power to get over the jump. Instead of railing the corner to keep your speed (momentum) up, so that you can clear the next jump. However due to your weight you're an exception, I would probably get a 450f. :P :lol: My 125lbs body can't handle a 450f, so don't plan on seeing me on one anytime soon. :facepalm: [/QUOTE]
