For example a Yamaha TZ 250 I raced equaled ~230lbs and would change direction effortlessly and nearly at the speed of thought. Very "tossable". On the other hand, a Suzuki GSXR 750 weighing in at 366 lbs took much more effort to get to change direction and turn in was not as sharp as the TZ. Not "tossable" IMO. Same logic can be applied to a car. Just my 2 cents.
