Other Ducs don't suffer from this. You chose a very focused bike. Mike Marshall has a Paul Smart Replica, and while it is a beautiful bike (and he has no problem doing 2K miles on it in a week), I'd never own one. After 15 minutes of riding it I was ready to get off.
You'd likely find a Monster to be more "user friendly" and versatile, and the Multistrada can do just about anything, and do it really well. You'd forget about your Harleys unless you really crave the cruiser position. In that case, I can't help you
