Depends on your definition of "experience"
Went to a school and another one of the students had one. We switched back and forth a lot, so I got a fair amount of seat time.
Decent throttle response, still very much on the sporty side of sport tourer. Hard bags are awesome and easy to use/remove, and the tail bag is handy (so he says, didn't have it on).

It's in the top 3 for me on next bike... Granted, if you go new it's now the GT instead of the ST.

*edit to add that the seat could use a little work. Just felt "funny" to me? Lots of aftermarket options out there though.
