only to the point where the lack of weight on the rear restricts traction....I recall Cagiva having this issue years ago with the 500GP bike (RIP!). It turned in great, sideways out....

The wonderful thing about motorcycles is the wider dynamic is one of complete compromise....look at any of the crtical dimensions and you optimise one for the ultimate performance, it will give in one area and it will screw you completely in another.....
