Quote: Test ride a Triumph Tiger 1050 first before you decide.
I'd say the Tiger was probably the bike I should have bought when I ended up with the VStrom. I had already been riding a BMW F650 for 3 years by that point, and probably could have progressed to the extra power. But the VStrom has been a great bike, so no regrets. I'm only looking for a cruiser now because of some upper-back pain I have when riding a standard. I like the more upright feel of cruisers. I also like being able to stretch out my knees more on a cruiser.

That's what those guys on the Moto Guzzi forum keep saying.
