While I would agree the Busa Class machines will not handle AS WELL as a a superbike (my old 999 for example) Busa's n ZX14 handle very well (so does the B King) Frankly it takes better than the average skill set to make much use of the difference.
While I like the appearance of the Busa better than the ZX14 (Just opinion here) the real advantage of the Busa is the Depth of the Aftermarket. You only need to look at Over200's or Gixerhp's Bikes to find Busa's that handle extremely well. Of course the Olin Suspension and Brembos help. As does the available shortened swingarm , for those of us a bit more budget conscious simple tricks like race tech springs and valves in the forks, and and going up on both sprockets shorten the bike.
