Hmm. I am NOT an expert (though I ride and have owned 3 traditional motorcycles). IIUC, reducing unsprung weight is really crucial for handling -- which is why so-called "inverted" forks / front shock absorbers became basically the standard.

bicycle weight ratios are completely different from even motorcycles. a bike wheel can quickly become heavier than the frame for example.
