Thanks for the link Ken. I have wanted to buy a video camera for the bike anyway so when the weather clears I should be able to post a video showing my bike self correct in a side wind blast with my hands off of the bars. But not too far off the bars in case a tank slapper starts to set in. The steering is fairly quick on the CBR250R. A pity to me that apparently more people haven't experienced this as it is one of those mystical feelings that certain activities can give you such as walking up when on an escalator that is already going up. On the bike it is very enjoyable and addictive. It is one of the things about riding a motorcycle that makes me want to get out and ride with no particular destination. Feeling the wind flowing around you, the minute temperature changes, the smells, and being one with it.
