I have had a supersports bike in my stable all my life (currently an Aprilia Mille 1000cc and a Ducati 998 before that).
I normally take a ride at dawn (avoiding traffic) to include a short stretch of highway and then relatively twisty secondary roads.
Comparatively speaking for car enthusiasts, it would be like taking a Ferrari for a spin.
In my opinion it's all about knowing both our and a bike's limits and staying within a safety threshold ... on any bike! (including our Triumphs).
With 3 very differnet bikes (SM, BMW R1100RT and the Aprilia) in my stable, I know the whereabouts of my/the limits on each one (i.e. I know when it starts becoming ... potentially unhealthy ).
