I used mine for touring until the new job and the Electra Glide Classic entered my life. As soon as it sells and before the next one is in the stable, it's back to the GTS. BTW, the Buell is in race trim so the GTS is getting used more often. What a sweet machine. Steve Am I the ONLY person

Nope Phil, I use my GTS for commuting some sport riding and drum roll please... touring duty (I can say that now since I've just recently taken my first interstate ride). I love the versatility of my GTS and I think its a good looking bike and besides its my wifes fav of the three bikes I own.

Stephen, the new Goldwing looks OK, but I will make the real decision when I see one. I like the look of the frame instead of plastic and the single sided swing arm sounds cool too. I also like the explanation of GWRRA, quite funny! Only one thing though, please tell me you didn't pick yellow.
