Nice comparison. They should have compared the GSA instead, but they test what they're given.

It has lots of XR bits.


No worries on that fender - I'm sure you'd have it broken off in the first couple of rides.

lol. Might be true. I had my fairly high dollar radar detector blow up on me today while riding. I had dropped it a day or two ago and it just effin' exploded during a high speed run today. I didn't even bother to pick up the plastic parts. Jeez. Whatever happened to quality workmanship?

SOG, I can't remember if you told me whether your Ducati was gone, but if it is, I think you are slowly working your way back into one lol. The XR, now that weird Dyna, next thing it will be a TL-R (because it was cheap ) and then bam!!!!!

So, a Ducati and have the driveway paved. Or build a new garage closer to the street.

Looks like a cool place to check out. Can't go this weekend, already have plans but the 21st is looking good so far.

Much like a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, the chances of me being able to get on one of those is nil.
