sportbikes handle worse than cruisers?? haha no im pretty sure that doesnt have anything to do with it...id say its definitely the speed...some people just cant control themselves and have to twist that wrist alllll the time...when youve got the power and ability why not right? i always think of that line from one of those superhero movies..."with great power comes great responsibility"...you have to learn to control yourself on them

I guess I meant handle more twichy like more change of direction from less movement by the rider? So if they make a mistake that wouldn't be a big deal on a Harley but sends them off the side of the road on a crotch rocket.
