My Fiat has a friend for the weekend.
It’s my brother’s ZX-10R. He’s out of town for the weekend and needed a garage to store it.
Sport Bikes are not made for people of my size and height. My legs are probably 6 inches too short for me to sit on this thing. And that fuel tank doesn't look comfortable if you have a belly the size of mine.

when I used to teach riding, i would joke:
sport bike guys, you gunna gain 10lbs. cruisers, 30-40.
your rides will start at a coffee shoip. then when you stop for gas you gunna have a donut. then lunch. then another coffee stop before you head home. It adds up.
The reason for the weight difference? sport bikers will feel their gut hit the tank before the cruiser people do.

As a short, fat man with a big gut, sport bikes just look like a torture device to me. My brother loves his bike though. His previous one was an old Yamaha FZR 600, and it was beat.
I’m in a tough spot because I feel like the only bike I could comfortably get a leg over is something like a Grom, but I weigh so much that I’d feel like a fat guy on a circus bike if I rode a Grom.
