I have a zx9r in the UK and a cb750 for plodding about in Portugal.
First time I get on it, yep it is missing half the power and half the handling, if I go on the mway, yep it's not fun, I tend to stick to 60-70, and in twisty A roads, yep not safe above 80, it's wobbly ASF actually, but it's loads of fun in the mountain roads, and it is so without being scary, I rarely wot it even, it doesn't really compel me to do that.
After some readjustment, it feels about right and I'm quite happy with it (ofc I wish it was a z900 though, but mostly for the handling).
If you're swapping for a modern bike, I'd say you won't notice it at all unless you're sport touring with a pillion. ____________________
