Acelleration is errr much increased, which might go some way to explain why the front tyre see's a bit less wear recently lol.

As far as top speed goes, it hasn't really suffered, but like Johnboy says it will make the bike a bit more buzzy.

Another thing to consider which is far less hooliganistic, is that the fact the gearing is lower makes the bike easier to thread through traffic.

Hope this helps you, Dan.
