Watch this space.

Well, from previous experiments (also hush-hush, eh, Northy ;-) ) I can say that when going from a conventional batteries-down-the middle to a 3x3 saddle pack lay-out, the difference in roll is:
A) not too dramatic
B) not too bad. It feels nice. A little less twitchy, but still responsive enough.

6 cells across would just be taking it one step further.
IMHO, the X-6 needs more weight over the rear end. SO I'm with you on the experiment. I will be watching this space closely :-)
