[QUOTE="whereisbobl, post: 1441539, member: 93233"] Heck, I've test ridden so many bikes, it's not an easy decision. The ST1300 is a fantastic bike, but they are getting up there in age. Some things break just from time. The FJR is a little small framed for me. And no tip over protection. So a bunch of time and money will be spent to make the bike suitable. Plus, my future next couple of years is unknown. Will I be around enough to use a new bike,? Or will I be gone for most of the year? Could be either one. Various bikes have made the short list, and are still on it, but I need one comfortable reliable bike for long distances. Then, if it turns out I'm going to be around for a while, I will get probably a tiger 900, or even better yet the new tiger 1200 that hasn't come out yet. If it was an easy decision, I would have made it last spring when I started looking. [/QUOTE]
