It's not just judgement, it's the power of the bike as well. Throttle response is extremely quick, and with an engine that size you need to think faster and make judgements faster as well.truth. That's partly why I feel i couldve started on a bigger bike even, with proper judgement and only driving it as hard as you are comfortable it seems like it would be fine. :-/
I'm not saying that you wouldn't be able to handle it, but beginners who start from a 500cc or 650 and jump straight to a liter bike is still a dangerous decision.
I turned down an offer to trade my bike for a 1000 GSXR 2009 White/Red with him giving me some cash because I know I'd get in too much trouble with it.
