"sporty", yes i can relate to that, when i first got my cb919f it was actually painful to ride until i found the suspension damping adjustment screws front and back.
Now it is even better and more comfortable than the cb1100, i adjusted the back to the point that it just stopped bouncing on the road.
After you have been riding 15000 km the engine should feel looser and develop more power you will appreciate the horsepower when overtaking, the cb919 is doing a better job than the cb1100 ( power/ weight ratio ) in that respect and your cb1000 does that even better.
Watched an older guy bunched up on a small sporty ducati, legs pulled in etc. it just did not look right, you need to be young and willing to forego comfort to fit on a sportbike, maybe the fuel dursty symptom gets better over time, thanks for all those details and congratulations again!
