As such I think the biggest buying point has been missed....

I totally agree with that. They have laboured the commuter angle too much really, when as we all know its a stonking performance bike (and thats not just a biased opinion). It's one of the best bikes ever built for its performance, looks and versatility which 12 years on is still hard to better. I guess if it doesn't have the latest electrickery on it though it gets dismissed by journos to some degree. In fairness, they get to ride all the latest 'hot poop' bikes out there so become a bit 'blinkered' in my opinion  :rolleyes

It's not a performance bike though is it, it's just an all rounder that happens to have a number of strong points!

Of course it's a performance bike. If you own one and don't view it as that then maybe you have a lemon ? It's a powerful bike with ample performance as so many have already intimated. Don't confuse what i am saying with 'Superbike'. I don't for one minute think it could out perform an R1, GSXR, Blade etc but in comparable company it still shines in my opinion
