Sounds like you're now one of the many ex-sports bike riders like myself who have left the 160mph+ behind and can enjoy the pure fun in this bike. It might not be fastest in a straight line - but who needs straight lines when the swing from right to left to right gives you such a buzz and the torque from a thumper at 4500 rpm is as thrilling as the outright 125bhp at more than double that. Choose the fuelling set up to suit your style of riding and the tyres and fork spacers/oil to match your chosen road surfaces and riding this bike is like your first love every time you mount it.
Good report and come back with more when you fettle your bike with some of the mods in the XT Mods section.
