I have riden all kinds of trails and road on my AC 650 and found it very stable and confidence inspiring. My wife even noticed a difference.

I own a 2005 ac 650. This machine is very stable given it has the highest ground clearance out there. I think a lot has to do with the Radial tires it comes with. They are extremely forgiving and clean very well. You have no problems sliding this machine sideways through the turns or cornering on 3 wheels.

they are pretty unstable unless you know how to ride. mine wheelies so it can't be that top heavy

I find the 650 more stable then other machines I haven riden. Recent reviews have praised the new 650 for being stable and the only difference is they dropped back to a 25 inch tire instead of the 26 to get the extra clearance. It is the most stable machine I have ridden and I love it on the trail when others are struggling.

Just at higher speeds.But you'll get that with any of them.You can always adjust the settings on your springs too.As for top heavy depends on the size of the rider.
