it's an assumption based on the one i rode 10" inches out cornered like ***t so the assumption is that another 4 would be murder if i'm wrong then i'm wrong

any bike with a stretched swingarm is gonna handle like shyt compare to a none stretched bike. The longer a bike is the harder and slower it is to turn in. And if you add a fat tire or lowering to the mix it just gets worse. All depends on how you plan to ride your bike, but it will not be railing no twisties with ease, more like hanging in the back with the n00bs and cruisers. But to each their own

I have an f3 also that isn't streched, handles no differently then the streched bike...then again I don't do track days but every once and a while I will light it up on the back roads.

not to offend you, but judging by your back tire, you dont lean much at all, I mean its squared off and alomst flat like a car tire. If thats your thing fine, but the bike is capable of more in stock from

And only reason the none-stretch bike handles no differently is because you ride it the same. Again thats how you roll fine, but isnt a fair comparison.
