Yes, the increased torque is easily noticeable. Wind protection seems similar as any sportbike; if you're tucked in it's fine; if you're sitting straight up you're in the wind. Mirrors seem like they are a fractionally wider, but it seems like it's harder for me to get my elbows out of the way of them. YMMV.

The triple-tree stand is bulletproof, allowing you to turn the bars all the way in either direction when you're working on things around the handlebars, and it's impossible for the bike to fall off.
