I have to agree with Mopho. I actually like my 7 over my previous sportbike because most the fun is under 3 digit speeds. It was too easy to just nail the throttle and get to silly speeds on the bike... though I do miss the ability to pass cars quickly and split lanes.
The biggest difference I notice is the faster you go on a sportbike, the more stable it becomes. Pretty intoxicating in it's own right. But I don't miss the sudden fear of coming around a corner, knee close to the ground, and finding a patch of dirt that's been kicked up right in your line. Or a car cutting into your lane (which may be a bigger problem with the 7).
