Hmmm,
1 Year/5000km on a 2004 LS650
3 years/32000km on a 2004 Honda 599
.5 years/10700km on a 2007 ZX6R

Plus a couple of other bikes.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

How was the transition from the smaller and less powerful bikes to the SS bikes?

I didn't really have any problems.

It depends on the person.
