Yeah. Driving cross country.
I've got an FJR for sportier touring and an R1100R for when I need the fix.
I think I might so I'll let you know.

I wouldn't do it, but then I tend to be a minimalist. Whether you do or not it seems your stable consists of rides that functionally overlap a great deal. Looks to me what you really need is a dual sport.

Under no circumstances should you, or anyone else, make such a trade.Bigsmile

It's a done deal. Pics to follow.
My stable includes a few other bikes so I'm happy. The bike is HUGE. It dwarfs everything else in the garage. The handling is very good for it's size but feels tricky at low speeds. I've been riding for over forty years and my passenger is a very happy camper now. That played a big part in the decision. She gets cold(heated seats are great) and nothing gives you the wind protection and amenities like this bike. I had an 04 K12GT but the sport seating didn't work for my passenger. The 04RT I really liked so it was tough to let it go but I tend to change bikes more frequently than I do my passenger so all is good.
Thanks for the tips and advice. (I actually have been thinking about an Elise though, not the Exige) Lol

Congrats!

Keeping a passenger happy is a virtuous activity.

Take it for more rides, and let us know what you think in more detail.
