A hands-off test is really not recommended on any motorcycle, no matter how well it's set up, since it doesn't tell you much and can lead to uncontrollable wobble.

Actually my hands tingle/fall asleep after one hour into a ride so thinking I might be gripping to tight I held handlebars very loosely to relax my hands. That's when I noticed the wobble. I have no desire to ride hands-free!
