Biposto

My 996 is a Biposto.
Today I took my 24 year old daughter out for a rare pillion ride.
I have always thought this and today confirmed it. My bike seems to handle much better 2 up. It seems to turn in better and cornering seems smoother. I'm no Rossi so am I imagining this or do I have a point? It would make sense that a 2 seater would be set up to handle best with 2 people.
If this is true which settings would improve solo riding?
I know that the rear spring is stiffer on a Bip but would this effect cornering?

Any comments or am I just talking cods?
