On the SV I can only get the tip of my toe down on one side or I can hop from side to side (dont laugh ASM).
I'm not going to make the change instantly as ideally I want to get a new job first (that way I wont have to commute stupid distances on the CBR). I am however already in the frame of mind that I am going to sell the SV and am therefore preping to sell.

The getting feet down/feeling comfortable on the bike is an issue i guess. Maybe you can get some of those boots that give you a few extra inches.
Anyhow bah to putting both feet down....left only please.
I still think your problem is excessive mental negativity. I had a curvy and that was a decent enough bike.....a new pointy has to be better.
When you get the CBR i will be the first to mock you when you take a spill in the icy weather.
