I'm on a casual quest for the ONE perfect bike and will then cull the herd. The VFR800FD is close to filling the bill. The one serious shortcoming is power. My Buell's massive and never ending torque (and 420 lb. weight) have spoiled me. The power is almost overwhelming when you crank on it in the middle gears. Overwhelming in a delightful way. I'd have a hard time living without it.

I’m considering the Ducati SuperSport S with bags. Light , nimble. Spose to be comfy with plenty of horse power. I wish Ducati would continue to make “under seat exhaust” standard design. That’s one of the features that originally caught my eye with the R1100s.
