The M50 has a little bit of weight to it which I think is a good thing. If you buy a bike that is too light and with too high a center of gravity you will get blown around at any type of speed which can be very uncomfortable for a new rider. The steering on the M50 is actually on the light side (some have said it feels heavier when you add some sort of a windshield). I have been riding for over 20 years and IMHO the M50 is the perfect bike for anyone, experienced or not, that is not looking for serious performance and is not riding more than one hour each way on a regular basis.
