Welcome, I've occasionally blasted thru Ludlow!! My opinion is that a good suspension specialist can tune the internals well enough..but having something different if you have the time & money is preferable.

My brother's GSXR1000 '06 has a much better feel on the twisty bits because the fronts recover from shock much quicker. And the longer you can keep rubber on the tarmac the more handling improves. Seems like a lot of work and money to mod the 'Bird though

Welcome from Oz I sat on a ZX14 when looking for the right blackbird, didn't feel very inviting.
