Really? I think the heavy flywheel makes it harder, at least when it comes to heel and toe, because you have to depress the throttle more to get the revs up, which can be challenging when half your foot is on the brake pedal. I much prefer being able to get the revs up with a less pressure. That's just my personal preference tho.
