might I also suggest a go on a TDM900. Although Dukes and TLS'sssss are no doubt more exciting nothing comes close to doing everything as well as a TDM.

lol...I always look for TLs first when I'm on trade me!!! I miss my old beh bee!!!

Poor old SV needs 2-4 teeth more on the back to make it fun... but that's cheap n easy to do

Me neither, but all the reviews I've read about 'em raved about the ergos & how comfy they were. Definitely worth a look - Keep it Orange!

will be used as a weekend toy on longer trips,

I don't want to go back to a sports bike (GSXR, R1 etc)

The catering and accounts department has given the green light so Please help

cheers

Think you should look at a bandit 1200 or the new 1250
you get the power grunt and it still gets you away from the sports sore wrists aspect .which is why i got a bandit
when you ride it you know you still have sports under you when you want it theres great accleration when you come out of a corner
just dont feel like a sports bike
