MT-07 or GSX 8S? (self.motorcycles)

Looking to upgrade from a Z400. I’m split between the tried and true MT-07 and the newer GSX 8S. Both seem like solid bikes. I’m leaning towards the MT-07 but am worried that I am missing out on features that the GSX 8S offers.

Can't speak for the GSX, but I've got a 2022 MT-07 I've put around 4500 miles on and I love it. Plenty of torque across the entire powerband and just feels very nimble. Only complaint I have is that the front end feels a bit soft and tends to dive quite a bit but nothing unmanageable.
