curious as how you are "feeling" the better handling? Both the R1 and Gixer had more flick&stick than my riding talent could test. I tend to prefer a heavier, deliberate front end and a little softer tail so I can feel it squrim a bit before things get too exciting. (light compression damping and rebound)

Ps that bike's colors would almost match my leathers, all it needs is a bunch of scuff marks

Keep it right side up
