how durabvle is a f2/3
how durable are f2/3's? tired of my 250, its still in decent shape so i think i might try to pick up a beat *** f2/3, but was wondering how they are for learning, if i'm going to be busting stuff daily, cause i use my bike as transportation daily, and need to be able to ride it to work.

F3's i hear are a tad heavier than most sportbikes but are tough as a tank.
not sure about the weigh issue but when i asked a friend of mine who rides with SBF he told me F3's are tanks weight and durability wise

yea, i can get my bike to balance, but its still decently minty, and it doesnt make sense for me to stunt it out, cause its only a 250 with drums that is hard to find parts for, so i think ill get f2/3 and mildly gear it and cage etc.

f2 daily commuter and stunter for me... 55T and no fairings is all i have done to it.
the rear brake fades if you're on it too much, so it teaches you to only use it when you need it.
its been dropped with no cage twice and only broke 1 foot peg, everything else was fine.
the steel exhaust silencer is really easy to shorten.
the cam chain rattles like a **** and i've cooked 2 regulator/rectifiers
i still love the thing. the weight isn't too bad compared to the 900s, but its a fair bit down on power. it should help you improve like it did for me. it shouldn't hold you back at all.
