And for decades we've been told how important it is to have a stong headstock to the frame so as to give the frame / fork connection a sturdy connection, so what do Honda do, attach the forks to a pivot! That's going to make the handling interesting.

Probably, but if you need a bike that won’t fall over then decent handling isn’t going to be high on the priority list is it?
