My feeling on that was not only the price but the fact that it was TOO technologically advanced for most people. Just look at all the folks who think Harleys are now "modern". What I'd like to see: a more sit-up riding position with more leg room (yes, I'm over 6' tall and lots of legs with knees that don't bend very well), hard luggage that I don't have to pay extra for, shaft drive, stone-reliable ABS, and better sorted out EFI (no surging at all, cold or hot). The weight isn't a factor for me. Coming off a Concours, this bike seems like a lightweight as it is. Regards, Henry S.
