I hear ya on this one. I sold my 99 standard about 6 years ago and it still has a special place in my heart. There was something really engaging about the way those 6 carbs breathed in the acceleration. It's not as if it was necessarily faster than other bikes, it was just a really visceral connection to the road. I also enjoyed the shape of the bars, having my wrists in a more neutral position, and have considered having some angled bar tubes fabricated for the Heli's to approximate the position.
