Everyone needs to cut Jeff some serious slack. He's a true blue HD rider and definitely not in the R.U.B camp that many here are referring to.
Noah, I agree to a point. The appeal for me is the lack of technology the R9T has. Yep totally not the BMW model but IMO they nailed the asthetic. I saw one on display at the Des Moines IA airport and that cemented the appeal for me. Have yet to even swing a leg over one but will once the weather gets better here in San Diego. All that said I'm no twin fan. Far too much vibration that puts my hands and body to sleep. My all time favorite is the triple from Triumph
The newer models got it all dorked up. I would be looking for a '06 model, low miles, and ~ $5500. Sweet bike all around.
