I rode my BIL's once, felt way too top heavy, like it would toss me over the high side with any misstep ina curve...
I don't know if it's my lack of exposure to a lot of different rides, etc, but I feel a bike should fit your comfort, or more to point, riding style.
I feel well balanced on the s40, and I believe that equates to confidence in myself and in the bike, I dunno.,,
Some time back I purchased and rode a Suzzy SV1000. I soon found that, after riding 'Cruisers' for many years, this bike, with the steep fork angle was not my cup of tea. At my age and ability, I was not interested in becoming proficient in safely handling it. However, in a straight line the thing would pull and pull up to the 'one ton' mark (in 4th gear)with ease. Anyhow, I sold it before I got any speeding tickets, or hurt myself.
