I also find that bikes are suited to different riding styles. I have a 350 Royal Enfield Meteor cruiser , I also have a Benelli imperiale quatro centra (400cc in English). both great for normal road use but not for sport biking. I notice on a lot of YT vid's the REV LIMIT these bikes out, yet I'm never even achieved that once? both are Classic 1950's general design appearance but have Fuel injection and ABS on both. when I'm riding the Bike does the talking when they both attract a lot of attention, usually from old Guy's who used to ride and actually think they are originals! lol! I'm pretty sure if a Janus is rided to match it's apperance shall we say, they are probably perfectly safe. Also Who rides at speed on a steel grid bridge or scarified road surface anyways? that's asking for trouble from the off. Yuo domn't ride in tramlines either you scoot across them not on them. Same thing

Doing wheelies in most countries is Illegal anyway, in the UK it can be a Ban. Why isd there a need to go on one wheel with a vehicle built to have two on the road. With the wobble thing, tensing up is the worst thing you can do and braking as well just shut the throttle and stay loose,

The issue of speed wobbles, was usually cured by adding steering dampeners.
This is not new and it's been going on - and off - for a long time.

And yes - at 170 Kmh - you sure know it.

The Kawasaki 2 strokes of the 70's were classic for wobbles and they even developed a perpose buit Damper for the bikes the fitted the top of the folk yoke and onto the down frame at the front end, that cured it and it was adjustable as well. In the 70's Yamaha solve the problem with a screw down damper on the head stock you could adjust by simply turning a knob on the middle of the top yoke by the bars. I had plenty of Honda's and don't ever recall the need for dampening?
