If you have a bit of experience you should be able to handle the 400

you may enjoy the 300 as well,,,,,but I would say the 400 would be fine too

It may take a little getting used to the width in the front

Get the 400 and take it easy
should be no problem for 5`11" and you will probably get heavier, as you get older and end up having to change a 300

know your limits drive the bike dont let the bike drive you [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Bing means the difference between a 3 wheeler and 4 wheeler.

I think you'll be happier with the 400 in the long run - more potential with it than the 300. 300's are nice, don't get me wrong - but for the money you might as well make that 100cc jump.
