I weight around 15st (210lb) (95kg) and i read on here and other HM forums that the front end feels a bit skittish...i dont have this prob and feel fairly well planted when countersteering into a corner. As the riding postion on the bike lends itself to be more front biased, i am convinced extra weight over the front well really helps...so instead of looking for the snake oil that will make you 796 front end stiffer..just hit Krispy Kremes..
