A bit like if you imagine what it might feel like if the steering head was about to detatch itself from the frame.

that's it!! Soft suspension helps....

seriously tho, isn't a SD there to stop the head stock moving too far on mainly bumpy straights at speed? I doubt we get much upto 120 so what's the need? Soft hands and it sorts itself out - it wont stop that hinge-in-the-middle affect due to incorrect or rubbish set up or inadequate chassis will it?
