Looking for a similar bike myself. A couple Duc's (620SS and Sport1000) in my past, but older now and looking for something sporty, but more upright riding position... occasional 2-up use
Looked at the Monster 800 and Aprilia Shiver 750... nice bikes, but trying to keep the budget down. Tuono and V11 are candidates
Guzzi is the air-cooled classic but heavier, known for torque steer and vibrations at cruising speeds. Tuono a 'better bike' on paper... far more modern but style is not so much to my liking
Analog vs Digital, in some ways...
Gonna have to ride both, I guess...
