Soooo true! An HD feels like turning a tank to me because the front feels soooooo heavy. The lill 250 feels like a bicycle on day two at the track after tossing around the r6 pretty hard. The empulse (electric bike) also felt heavy But throw a fat man power cup (V profile) on the front of that r6 and it will feel like it turns by just breathing. If turning fast is something you're getting used to... avoid V profiles on that r6. Trust me, when I want the r6 to turn faster than a 250, I toss one on. They are no joke.
