Hello All,

I'm a newbie, not only to this forum but to motorcycling. I haven't bought my first bike yet and I'm trying to do as much research as I can before I do. I was hoping I could get some straight up honest answers about these bikes and who better then the people that ride them.
SO here goes, I am a heavier guy( 215 Lbs) and I was wondering if these bike , especially the Zongshen Sierra 200 and UM SMF-200, can be ridden by me at a comfortable cruising speed of 50 MPH, after break-in ofcourse?
I'd probably being cruising at this speed for about an hour, can it be done, or am I asking to much from the machine? If either one of the bike could do it, do I need to get different sprocket sizes? Any info you guys can provide would be very helpful. Thanks
