sorry but that does not make any sense..my Tiger will blow my TBA away On any road and is much more stable then my TBA hands down..
You must consider that the Tiger is a Triumph, designed with much more attention to rider safety than typical "sport" bikes. Back in the days of extreme rake and fork lengths, I knew folks who fell asleep and went straight down the road for up to a mile because, at speed, the bikes were very stable. On my America, too much throttle from a stop will result in wheel spin rather than dumping over backward. Too much brake may cause the front wheel to lock and slide out from under, but never cause an endo. And, it does require a degree of instability to flip-flop a bike through a tight S curve at speed. A cruiser style bike won't do it simply because it is more stable and tends to stand itself up and go straight
