[QUOTE="Spud, post: 1138254, member: 17601"] In my experience..... Did a nice spirited ride with a guy on the K1300GT, it seemed remarkably even to the fjr in out of corner acceleration and handling. It certainly wasn't pulling me. Found a guy on a DUC Multi on a seriously super deserted stretch of secret highway here in ID, he faded into the mirrors once I passed 110, guess he didn't care for the fun, and I was disappointed. Have passed several BMW 6 cylinders, cuz no one wants to push a bike that costs a mint.... Had my lunch handed to me one day by a really fast guy on a piped Connie 14. I hung with him for a while on a great stretch of road and lost my nerve--say what you will--those things are simply fast as hell. Havent' found an ST yet I didn't eventually go around. Same for any twin Beemer. And yeah, I'm sure a really great rider could lap me on any of the above--it's good to have so many great choices out there. [/QUOTE]
