Is that an ST4S? I bought a 2002 a few years ago from MotoJava and then eventually sold it to another BARFer. Loved that bike. But my back couldn't take riding a 'sporty' sport-tourer (back surgeries, hip replacement) so I bought a Versys 1000, which is more upright.
But sometimes, late at night, I think about the Duc...

Thanks (won't mention name)...You!
+1 ...
little suprised at the bikes that made the Holeshot short-list, but certainly approve 100% ...
Perfect Punning John! How come on the short list?
Ditto.
I could've sworn there was one on the floor (normal suspension) when I bought my RS in February.
Berto, I'm still saying you need to take the RS for a spin before you make up your mind. Seriously.
I'll take a second Look Jason. I go back to an ADV bike cause I think I might want to do some off road stuff at times.

on my honor, innocent of punning!
so many great bikes suggested here, just pleased that you’re looking at bikes that can take you to some awesome places off-pavement. exploring Death Vally, the Mendocino NF, Baja, and NV has been a whole ‘nother moto chapter for me after my little club racing career ...
not sure why it suprised me, guess it shouldn’t have.
will be interesting to see what you decide to buy ...

It IS!!
I'm totally down.
I did my local Empire/Pine Flat/Bonny Doon, flip a bitch at 1 and head back that same way ride last evening. Grins ear to ear.
Holy hell is if fun to ride again. The S hauls! I did hit the rev limiter once and it was kind of abrupt, it definitely got my attention. This is my first V twin so there is a bit of learning going on. It feels planted and smooth though. I kept the bags on it. (I had to make a necessary stop for a bag of coffee and 1/2&1/2.) I can't wait to do a 300+ day on this bike. The Corbin seat feels great.
