With today's better tires you have to be careful not to lean over too far. If you do, you know it. Feeling the rocker cover hitting the road is unnerving,

The other odd thing is the left foot peg is about 2-3" forward of the right one (crankshaft offset). Feels a little weird the first time you hop on.
