Understood, but someone looking at touring bikes in general would include them all. Would you say the GW was cheaper to own from a maintenance perspective? The ergos are goofy for me, but works for people in the right range. The GT reminds me of my RT, the GTL is more like a GW in ergos. YMMV. I'll stick with the RT for a little while longer.
The GW is cheaper in the long run. IMHO the GW is the best touring bike on the market.
Because I don't spend all my time touring I wanted something that was fun around home.
If it wasn't for the K1600 I'd still be on a GW.
I agree the ergos between the two are vary similar.
I'm to old and fat for the ergos of anything sportier.
If the other baggers had the performance and reliability of Honda or BMW I would have looked at them.
My friends have the other baggers and they don't compare.
