What, me worry?
Saw the article in the latest Cycle World and now the Owners News. I think they look pretty cool, especially the GT.
I have a K1200GT now, and I do really love the horsepower and smoothness. Sometimes I just think it's overkill. My wife doesn't do any long distance touring. I did one "sort of" long distance with my brothers a few years ago, and that's really been it, we do 4 wheels for longer trips together.
So I keep thinking instead of a sport touring rig that I use mainly to commute (about 20 miles one way), why not get something like this, a commuter that I still could take out and "tour" with if the bug really bit? Has me thinking anyways. Not sure about storage space for either commuting or touring with, it would seem weird not having saddle bags, I know they say there will be an accessory trunk for it, would have to see that. Would miss the cruise. I didn't think it would be a major deal, but yeah that cruise is sure nice. With the slant 4 you really need that to avoid a ticket, if you don't set that my speed keeps creeping up. Maybe the scooters will have a throttle lock hole.
