I was speaking with a guy on a GSXR1000K5 at my last trackday - he said he liked the slipper bt you get reduced engine braking as he was going from 6th to 2nd and there was hardly any drag - so he was more reliant on front brakes which obviously has an affect on the way the bike slowed, more ass up, and turn in. But IK'm sure you'd get used to it after a few rides
