You are no help big T.
My recent experience... Sportbikes are not fun to run tasks. For example, the 50 mile drive to my parents, all straight. Ont he RC and RR, no fun.
I found back road alternatives, fun, but blind corners and farm equipment... Not safe. I tried just slowing down, and had no fun whatsoever.
My desire for a cruiser is as strong as my desire to continue riding on public streets. Unlike some others, I do not want to go TRACK only. People have already suggested and FZ1, FZ6, or something of the like. I had a Bandit 600 and had not problems sliding it in a corner. So that won't solve my problem.
