Where did the myth that sport bikes are "more difficult to ride slow" originate?

[QUOTE="ninebadthings, post: 1938822, member: 265872"] Sorry, have a DRZ and a bmw GS in the garage next to my VFR, no contest. Sport bikes are reasonable once you get used to them, but just don't have the maneuverability at slow speeds of a dual sport or standard bike. But what are you calling slow speed, I'm talking at around walking speed. Above jogging speed, no problem, everything is good except choppers and cruisers with stupid handlebars. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrwwfUDpk6M&feature=related Firecracker...I'll have a go slow contest with a crusier guy any day, will even let you attatch all those flags to your bike that you like so much...I don't ride in parades or charity rides because I ride a motorcycle for sport, not a social occasion.
