What's meant by 'flat handling' and 'lazy front end' ?
#2
I think the rake it a little longer than modern sport bikes (by design) and maybe it's a comparison to how quickly or easily it leans in to a turn. I like a sporty ride and lowered my triple tree on my front forks by 10mm to effectively decrease the rake a little. It turns in a little quicker. But it really depends on how you like to ride. I liked the CB the first time I rode it as much as I do with the mods I have made.

I think the 2017 has a modified geometry to give it a sportier ride. I'm guessing that is what the reference was to?
