Default Feels...Different?

OK, I know we've touched on this before, but I can't quite find a thread that's actually answering my question. I have about 3000kms on my M50, mostly in-town. I just came back from about 200km Highway ride (speeds around 110) the whole time, and I swear the bike feels...different? Feels like my gears got longer, my power is smoother and maybe even that the bike handles a little better? I dunno, maybe i'm losing it.

I guess the question is, what kind of changes in the characteristics of our bikes can we expect, and roughly when should they take effect? 1000km, 2000km...5000km?

I find it perplex-ifying. ( invented that word, you can use it )
