Between frequent stops and starts, and the tight spaces city riding puts you in, there are particular challenges to urban riding. As a sporty naked bike, the K300 SF questions its capability for daily commute in a congested city environment. When stuck in jams, riders debate the bike's turning radius, clutch feel in stop and go traffic and heat management. Comfort and control in urban riding is influenced by other points of discussion, such as the upright riding position and handlebar setup. Some say it's like a smaller capacity bike traditionally used in cities, while others say the extra power gives them an advantage in quick maneuvers through traffic.
