If anyone has tried turning one at high speed with just the handlebars, you know that it just turns on a horizontal plane, and it tries to yank you off in the other direction, hard. That is until the outer edge bites a wave and then you go over... . I can only imagine the Can Am feels like that around a corner because there is no way to shift the weight...
I know on snowmobiles, you hang off like a t-shirt wearing squid trying to drag knee.
