V-Strom 1000 and a KTM EXC are no problem once you get used to them. Just slide a cheek off when putting your foot down.
Only bike I've really struggled with it a Ducati Hypermoto but that's light so not as much of an issue.
To be honest though It's rare I just go for a quick ride locally, the only riding I enjoy is either off roading on the KTM or a weekend (or longer) away touring. That's more about seeing new places though than the riding itself.
For fast sporty riding, take it to the track, then you'll really hate the road.
