The track guys would probably appreciate the extra horses and the smaller dimensions but I doubt any of the standard road users would notice a massive difference on the road. The main reason I like it is that I had 2 GSXR750s before this and although they were good, quick bikes and I had no bother keeping up with the bigger lads, they weren't comfortable and were much twitchier on our crap bumpy roads than my Blade, Hopefully the new model will be as usable a road bike as the outgoing one. Bike testers tend to forget about stuff like that, probably due to the fact they've been shipped out to Spain on an all expenses jolly (that goes for all makes)
