I've been thinking hard about getting away from a cruiser style bike altogether. Like some have said, "some people can't find a comfortable spot for long rides."
I've been looking at the R1200RT, sport tourer, and everytime I find a used one its gone (sold). Maybe its just me but it looks like its not uncommmon to get $2k over nada for them. Unlike, everything else you can expect to loose atleast $1k to $3k from nada.
Looking forward to a test ride, hopefully it won't be a let down like the GW was.
