i think the riding position of the sports bike has a bearing. Being
low down you automatically lose a % of your vision and with the wind
pressure that can increase. This then means that along with vibration,
vision is decreased and the ability to read the road drops.
For me this is why i prefer the Sports Tourer route where you get the
best of both worlds without compromising vision.
