I go through it every time I get a different bike it seems.

I spent years on the Monster and got really comfortable. I switched to the SS and it took a couple of years to feel the same all the while feeling really slow even though other people would say I was actually faster.

This bike has been the same, except I was really slow on it at first.

you were obviously adapting to it the right way and not using the horsepower increase as a crutch

Nothing wrong with owning one TDI, lots of torque and if you don't stay focused, lots of speed...
