All things considered, both bikes seem to handle pretty well for what they are. I'm sure anyone buying either of these bikes are smart enough to know that neither of them can do twisties with sportbike accuracy. But that doesn't forbid them to go out and ride the curves to the limit of the bikes (or the persons) ability.

While I agree both bikes create an incredible amount of horsepower and torqe, only one delivers it at an rpm practical for cruiser style riding both in town or on the road. The Yamaha is essentially a sport bike without being bent over the tank. Yamahas's power delivery is great for blasting down the quarter mile strip or ripping through the "twisties" in the mountain or coastal highways.However for almost anyone who appreciates being able to confidentally negotiate the Strip or the Twisties as well as the highways and cruise confidently any where any time with the "Roll-on" power that no other bike has ever deviered period. The Rocket III is a "Muscle Cruiser" not a sport bike with improved handle bars.
