Just because you own small bike doesn't mean automatically you have skills required. It's not the bike, it's the rider.

Agreed here. There seems to be this strong sentiment that people who ride bigger bikes are automatically disqualified from having any notable "adventure" and that every last one of them is just pretending. People are out in the world traveling on a motorbike, big or small. Why this indictment of them personally if they chose a bike that you disagree with? How narrow minded.
This thread was started with an honest question. I hope that the OP feels that there have at least been a few helpful answers .
