There is no becoming the best you can possibly be. It's an illusion. Each activity you do better will inevitably cause something else to suffer, so you just switch priorities from this to that, and overall you are pretty much going nowhere. Yes, i'm an idiot.

Anyway, let's be honest. Comparison between any motorcycles with different riders on a public road is far from objective.
Gold Wing has roughly double weight and triple power. Ground clearance of the stock ninjette is not spectacular at all. Probably just a bit better. Further, what Gold Wing looses with weight, it compensates with more expensive and better suspension, and more stability mid corner.
It probably goes like stink if someone is willing to push it.

The most important thing here is that two riders and one passanger had good fun, within the reasonable safety limits, and are willing to do something similar again.
