mods Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Mod (smaller ones) tend to be a bit lighter and are easier to chuck around. I think they are easier to learn on as well. I advise you to stick with what you have though. There are pro's and cons for both bike, neither is 'better' than the other. So there is little point in changing really.
