does a shaft drive perform well in twisties?

[Anonymous]

I purchased my GS650G from my brother .

When he first got it, I asked him what it was like driving a shaftie. He hadn't even realized it was one, the torque effect was so insignificant.

Honda Nighthawks were the worse with shaft steer ImHO. I tried a couple back in the 80's and hated the torque steer. Suzuki designed theirs better because I forget I have a shaft drive bike it is so balanced. I hate chains and doubt i wil ever own another one.
