Trace, I know that no true touring bike will give me the grins as my Buell, but I don't want to feel like someone kicked my puppy every time I twist the grip either.
And I did think about the 'Busa or 14, even the Connie, but the wife didn't much like that.
She's ridden on the back of an Ultra, and that's the ride she's looking for... damn.

I've always liked how the Stratoliner looks but I'm in to the retro thing. I don't understand why they don't sell, but for whatever reason they can be found pretty cheap. If I ever get a second bike a Strat S will almost certainly be it.

A friend competes in the Iron-Butt rallies and rides an FJ1300. We started looking at the finishing results over the past several rallies and what was once a BMW vs Goldwing rally is now a Yamaha vs everything else! There are more FJ1300's in the top finishing spots than anything else. Power, comfort, handling. What more do you need!?
