Before my bud got the latest 1250GS, he had the top of the line Honda Africa Twin with ESA. He found it very under sprung regardless of how well it still worked, and had the front springs and rear shock spring replaced...

Last thing I'd want to do is pay a premium for a suspension system that I'd still have to upgrade. I am sure they work great when working with the target weight/load. Feedback from NA riders will tell. I've got time to wait and see.

Keep in mind that every suspension needs correct spring and matching valving for the rider to get the best out of it. 
A properly set up high range suspension is still not as good as a properly set up ESA. 
Wether some riders notice any difference or indeed need it, is a different story. 

I also think some people are missing the point of what ESA is good for.
