Me too - if I were to change from the big Z a naked bike like this would be high on my list - my friend who has had every bike produced twice currently has a 1290 Adventure which he rates highly over most bikes he has owned. This is a bike comes in the category of having "the beast" about it (180BHP), not for the faint hearted or the novice rider and I would like the opportunity to ride it.

Wow! Oh to be able to ride like that, and have a machine like that!
I want one, and a Tuono, and a Speed Triple, and a S1000R, and a Monster 1200, and a Steetfighter, and a MT-09
Oooo, I'm spoilt for choice.
Sadly all beyond my budget by a considerable amount.

As you will most certainly test ride one (  ) let me know if they have.
It's a beautiful day for a test ride.

Will do mate. I've got to go to Da Cronx today anyway. Might have to take my licence with me.
