Decided to upgrde...
Even though I love the new RT, while I was at the dealership for other business, I decided to test ride the K1600GTL. I have a shorter inseam (29") and this bike really fits me well. Also the riding position is a little easier on these old knees. I bought the RT because everyone told me the GTL's were cumbersome, heavey and had no "soul", I find none of that to be true for me. That plus the fact I liked the bike at $5k less. But my dealer (Eurosport Asheville) made me a heck of a deal and I'll be picking up my Damask Red Metallic GTL this week. Figure if I want to go "sporty" I can take off the top case . The BIG PLUS is that my wife like the GTL better..."happy wife, happy life"
