It's kind of like it is with my hire bike.
Bandit 1250, the way the power and tourqe is laid down gave the initial impression that it wouldn't wheelie. Where has it just needs to be handled in a diff way than the gen 1 to get anything from it.
Still think its god awful but its not as poor as my first ride impressions.
Same thing when I took out a 1050 tiger, nice engine but needed to be handled in a diff way to get the best from it.
So far the zx1000sx is the most like a well sorted gen 1 I have found.
But all bikes take time to get used to how to get the best from.
