I think it depends on how you get your jollies. I've ridden with many liter bike folks who couldn't do curves for shit but would run a buck 60 on the interstate.
If you are a flat out, top speed kind of person, the motard won't scratch that itch. If you are a twisty freak, the motard is all good. You are willing to plod along getting your nuts vibed into numb oblivion in order to carve the corners.
Motards are fun in that you just crack 'em open and rarely let off and just rip the turns.
