Yeah the joy of opinions. Mine is a ZZR250 so possibly similar geometry that the new gen.
But I added KR1-S front & rear with the forks converted to cartridges. The front wheel came back just over an inch but the swingarm is an inch longer, plus I fitted an Ohlins rear shock from a new gen, that raised the rear about 2”. The handling was good before, but now it’s amazing, it could do with another 30hp to take advantage of its handling. There is more weight over the front end & it steers like it’s on rails.
