I agree with lots of you. I am keeping my BA and this is an addition to the "stable". I will be going about 300 miles today with the one I love more than my bikes on the back. I will post what she thinks about the pillion comfort and ride. As for affordable, my Forest Service job keeps my head above water and my tax business gives me my play money
The BA is ready for the 30,000 service and after today the Touring will be ready for the 500. I just gots to figure out how to keep one of them on the road seeing we are having such great weather here right now. I do all my own work on the BA, but the Touring I will be taking to the shop at least for a while. Report forthcoming after todays ride, when I have a chance to get back on the site. Oh, the cost. I am pretty upbeat about the "complete" cost also. With everything, bike, accessories, tax, license and insurance (part year payment) it is still under 20,0000. I just can not imagine ANY other bike that would come close to this for less than 26,000 to 30,000 with out the extras and insurance.
