Can probably look at the most popular mods to see what irks most.
Lack of adjustable forks, the one-eyed low beam, on the S1 I dislike the complex windscreen as it made it almost impossible to find an aftermarket replacement.

I like the nimbleness and reliability, the up-right seating position, the center stand.

The thing I dislike most about the fizzy is the soft non adjustable forks, easily remedied, but my old FZS had some slight adjustment on front forks, compression I think, Things I like.. everything else.. :)

No problems with street and mountain riding with corners
Cheap insurance and tax
Open scorps sounds monstrous
Non-electronicky tech that much compared to newer bikes

Mainstand is handy and necessary for periodic maintenance and checks
