Meh, small bikes can bite ya real fast, and real hard too. I used to race euro pocketbikes. My experience is that smaller bikes can actually dole out a positively cruel amount of road rash, and with even greater immediacy.

Remember, you can balance a broom on your hand, but not a pencil. The longer lever "telegraphs" its motion more slowly, leaving time to react and counterblance. Small lever flops over so fast, you just eat it.
