But even though it wasn't a rice burner off the line, it had a 6-speed trans and plenty of low-end torque. It was comfortable once you were traveling over 30MPH and/or on the open road. It was not a bike you wanted to hop on and go to the local store.

You're right. My R1200CLC is a great traveling bike but is a challenge running errands. I use a Maxi-Scooter for errands and general puttering around because it is nimble, very thrifty and has a lot of easy to use storage.
