Not an owner, but I got to take a ride on one the other day, although it was an 07.
Bike handles insanely well, flicks side to side without any problem. It was setup alittle off for me (the guy who owns it is 5'10 130...i'm 5'6 185), but had no problem at all around corners, slow speed, and got up to 75. Bike has power everywhere, and you may never see the higher gears, since 1st and 2nd are more than enough to use around town all the time.
All I can say, be careful on the throttle. You twise alittle, and you're flying. I didn't realize that until i had the front wheel off the ground. Really a nice looking, well made, fantastic machine. Might take some time to get used to for longer rides due to the sportbike riding position, but that's no big deal
