The savage is my first bike and only bike i have ever ridden, today was my 1st day riding 2 up and just wondering if thats what it would feel like to ride a heaver bike?  I went very slow didnt even take it out of 1st gear, it was a way different ride.

It is all about balance so the slower you go the harder it is. Go and find a big empty parking lot and practice low speed turns and and starting and stopping.
