Guys who ride R1's are like guys who drive EVO's and WRX's as (if I remember right) BRUTAL pointed out the other day... They think they are the fastest thing under the sun when, in fact, they are definitely not...
If you're looking at Liter bikes stick to Honda or Suzuki. Even Kawasaki over Yamaha for that matter...

I don't know man, the new R1 is pretty wicked. You could say the same thing about guys in Corvettes . . .
I love my Bandit, which is dirt cheap to own, almost free, and is really more than enough bike for me. It's just I got to ride a 08 Gixxer once, and that kind of stability is addicting. The Bandit is a hoot, but like my old Vette is not exactly cutting edge handling technology.
