Both mine ain't got big holes low down pull really well but gen 1 still whoop em in a roll on contest
And the carb'd r1 is a much better road bike than the fi imho. The fi is too revvy for me.
As for bars/pegs position, it's always been comfy for my 6'1" height, but I've got a short body, and 36" inside leg with overlong arms. (yes I'm a mutant)
It feels a bit like a very high powered supermoto which is what I wanted, but it's comfy all day. I can get another 30-40 miles out of the seat compared to the FZ.
