VSA

According to the manual, VSA should be on at all times but with VSA on, my S2K is definitely slower at take off and I don't really feel any difference during high G cornering. Does anyone have similar experience ?

find a nice 20 miles per hour 90 degree off ramp and try taking it at 75mph with the VSA and without...which one works best? (don't try this at home, kids). The VSA is supposed to keep you from unintentionally becoming road pizza, it doesn't replace common sense.

I notice a big difference with the VSA off. The rear end gets loose easier with the VSA off. I've come to like VSA.

I tested it through the esses on my favorite stretch of back road. If you know what you're doing and want to hang the back end out, it won't let you. If you don't know what you're doing, the vsa thinks faster than you do and will help keep things from getting ugly. Notice I said "help". It will not prevent a crash if you do something stupid.
