When I had my 00 busa I made up new dog bones that jacked the rear of the busa
sky high (figuratively speaking) in an attempt to quicken up steering.
The pic should give you an idea of how high the back was...

The bike was immediately better in all facets of cornering (ie. initial tip in, line changes etc)
but at high speeds would sometimes begin to gently shake its head. But we are talking velocities
that make my gixxer thou shake all over the place (with an ohlins dampener).
I don't believe that high speeds stability is compromised that much when compared to the better steering you get with a raised rear (from tyre profile or jacking up).
