What's the Differance

[Anonymous]

I have an 82 GS11E, I am borrowing my brothers bike to work on mine. He has a 99 ZXR1100. I can move his bike around in the grass no problem, mine will take the wind out of you. Any ideas. the weight differance in only 20 or so pounds

Put it on the centerstand and check to make sure your brakes are not dragging. Could check to see if the chain is adjusted too tight also.

It could be a difference in the tire sizes. Check the brakes too!

The higher center of gravity of your bike won't help things.
