I'm looking over all the new bikes available. I've test ridden dozens...nothing really does it for me.....seems each has its compromises....

So far at the top is the Suzuki M90....its fun but it doesn't feel right with its long reach and feet out approach.....could be a close to perfect bike with different handlebars and foot controls.

    ok, I guess pier pressure does work to an extent..i've already got the H-D, so I guess a new style of bike is in order. Maybe the BMW 1300GT? Actually what I would love would be a big touring bike with the riding position and foot placement of my belost GN250.
    Comfort to me is king, but keep in mind I got to park it on

    I'm still looking and riding; trying to find the next bike to buy. Garage looks empty with just the Harley. Meanwhile I've been adding accessories to the Harley and riding clothes for myself.
    A few friends have been trying to steer me to a sportsbike, but I've raced behind sportsbikes through the twisties in my GT-4 and easily kept up while sipping coffee. Doesn't seem much fun on a sportbike if you have to use the excuse that you only have two wheels.
    Ideally, I'd like a Toyota turbo diesel motorbike! next to no maintenance and runs for 400,000 k's! If only they made such a thing...don't go mentioning the BMW R series.......the point that they need frequent valve adjustments shows the age of the motor and the engine is just plain ugly on a bike without a full fairing.
