Might be worse on a CG or something similar, while the longer suspension travel in a dual-purpose makes it more comfortable. That's what I usually hear from folks who upgraded from a basic utilitarian motorcycle to a dual-purpose, even though some dual-purpose motorcycles are still quite lightweight.
