I have ridden the previous model (maybe a '99), but it's been awhile. My only concern with the S3 with the windblast. How is it at commuting speeds (between 40-70mph), especially in the winter (I ride all year here in GA)?
I really think it will be my next bike, but any input would be nice, thanks in advance.

AT 40-70 is OK. I have it still unfaired, so no buffeting at base of helmet - clean, laminar flow as you get on totally naked bike. I'm riding it only for a week, but this week we had pretty good spread of temperatures in Atlanta so I tested it in different conditions. I have flyscreen+visor from Street Triple on order, this supposedly extends upper speed comfort to 90 - we will see.
