Anyone bought an MT10 or MT10SP?

Had the road test today, on an MT10, hated it.
Too tall, felt like I was perched on it rather than sitting on a bike, a bit like riding a 70's trailie.
The worst part though has to be the engine, how have they taken a 4 cylinder engine and made it feel like a parallel twin?
Mode 1 is like a switch, everything or nothing, mode 2 was jerky as hell and mode 3 felt dull until you got the revs up to a point where you're breaking all the speed limits.
No useable torque until you're flying.

Overall it looks like plastic and didn't feel like a £15k bike.
I've told the garage to spend the £1k to fix my bike instead of spending £15k on a bike I don't think I'll ever get on with.

Haha your the first person (other than myself) I've heard that's not impressed by it.
I didnt find it as bad as you I just dont think it's anything special. Didnt feel as fast as my Fz1, definitely uglier and as you say it's the best part of 15k for what doesnt really feel like an upgrade.
I think if I you came from a 600 or maybe a sports bike then it would be more appealing but not when you already have the older version
